Hello all,
One of the dreaded Maxtor SATA drives in my RAID5 failed, after just
3 months of light use. Anyhow I neither have the disk capacity nor
the money to buy it to make a backup. To make sure I do it correctly,
could you folks please double-check my intended course of action? I
would really appreciate that.
Gerd,
If you've got a credit card you can get Maxtor to send out a
replacement without having to pull the failed drive.
I've done this several times :) (b****y Maxtor drives!)
Thanks for the tip, I'll give that a try. Their website's RMA stuff
doesn't seem to work (application unavailable bla bla), so I guess I'll
cll them Monday... Probably be on hold for half a day :-(
