Karl,
striping is really best for the likes of video editing where vast quantities of material is being hauled off quickly then dumped back again quickly, and usually only *copies* of files are worked on and off a striped array<<<<
That's right, in my editing days on an Avid, we did stripe drives on an NT station.
Take care, Gregory david Stempel FIREFRAMEi m a g i n g www.americanphotojournalist.com www.soundexposure.org
