The RAID controller failed on my old server, it was out of warranty, and I think you see my relationship with that box from the above post. With RAID 1 mirroring, I am hopeful that if the server board fails, I can pull one of the drives and put it on a different machine and be back up immediately with data. My new server has 5 year 24/7/3 coverage. BTW: no 911, but an old Porsche Boxster at 35 with the top down is still lots of fun on the curves. Marlon
