Except one thing that I didn't anticipate: The application that's supposed to run has some problems under -I suppose- the new 2.4.28 kernel. I've had two panics / oopses in syslog already, and the process then is unkillable, so a reboot is in order. But I think that's bttv related, not the I/O layer. In any case I suffered through two lengthy raid resyncs already... ;-| So I've been shopping around for a *big* servercase today so I can put all disks (these 5, plus 6 from the current fileserver) in one big tower. I'll then use that over NFS and can revert back to my older working kernel. I've chosen a Chieftec case, as can be seen here http://www.chieftec.com/products/Workcolor/CA-01.htm and here in detail http://www.chieftec.com/products/Workcolor/NewBA.htm Nice drive cages, eh ? :-) P.S.: I get this filling up my logs. Should I be worried about that ?
