Post #296,492 by slugbug 11/27/07 5:44:55 PM Reply	Good info... My thanks... Seems like RAID 1 is what I need for now. Use RAID 5 at work. Will just buy a bit more storage to compensate. Useful info on the ACNC site. Appreciated! -Slugbug

Post #296,495 by slugbug 11/27/07 7:16:35 PM Reply	Probably 1TB x 2 (RAID1), if possible... otherwise, can survive with 500GB x 2 (RAID 1) and do multiple configs. My $0.02. -Slugbug
