One other possible alternative would be to fork out the money for more RAM rather than a second disk for swap. And just don't use swap, if you're worried about swap crashing the system...and performance will be much better, too. <snip> And how about swap-partitions on both disks? So on disk crash, one swap partition would survive. This works, won't it?
