Use 4 2.0Gig IDE drives. Stripe them using the mdutils (or not does not seem to matter here) For a filesystem we use ext2 here with a smaller blockspace (1K).
Note that we are continually swapping drives. No SCSI drive has survived more than 8 Months. We are now checking out how the situation is with IDE drives for a newsserver spool. -- {}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{} {} FISH Internet System Administrator at Fuller Theological Seminary {} {}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{} PGP Public Key = FB 9B 31 21 04 1E 3A 33 C7 62 2F C0 CD 81 CA B5
