Curently I am using the Software RAID-1 with two Harddrives...
Maybe I will switch to RAID-5 with 3 Drives.

But HOW do you backup 80 GBytes ???
OK, I have three drives and the first drive is a normal 120 GByte HD,
on which I have the OS and a around 120 Gbyte TEMP Partition !!!
If I try to 'gzip' or 'bzip2' the 80 GBytes, how many days need it ???
It is a Productionssystem and will go online in Paris at amen.fr next
year. I think, 'bzip2' nos no solution...
Never I have tried it. - I think, it is amegalomania !
OK, I use the HP Surstore 12000e with 16 GByte Tapes...
Thanks
Michelle
