    16MB Cache 250GB SATA Hard Drive $93

    This thread is cracking me up... everybody says... "if one HD fails, the entire array fails" as if RAID is evil and dangerous. What happens if I only have one drive in my computer and it fails? Is that any better or worse?

    Thanks mech! I think I'm going to pickup a different kind of DIMM and new CMOS battery to test those two things. I don't know what I'd do if I didn't live so close to Frys.
