Ever heard of IBM "death"start HDs? Or other stuff? As long as you use IDE hardware you are always close to fail, IDE hardware is done to put much data on cheap disks. If you use IDE stuff in servers, make all raid. And SWAP too, SWAP can be used heavilty, and if there are bad blocks you are hit too. A expensive vendor doesn't help you from crappy HW insealf. - -- [ Clemens Schwaighofer -----=====:::::~ ] [ TBWA\ && TEQUILA\ Japan IT Group ] [ 6-17-2 Ginza Chuo-ku, Tokyo 104-0061, JAPAN ] [ Tel: +81-(0)3-3545-7703 Fax: +81-(0)3-3545-7343 ] [ http://www.tequila.co.jp http://www.tbwajapan.co.jp ] -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.2.6 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Using GnuPG with Thunderbird - http://enigmail.mozdev.org iD8DBQFB7eYrjBz/yQjBxz8RAnoeAKDs4ZdE+DPktmI8R/yBnFs44MvliQCg5OYy Omq0O6Y5xqWNUFbmHorLyr8= =GTZH -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-raid" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
