I <3 my HDs

[Suspicious-Teach8788]

Fat@$$ assignment due tomorrow, my roommate was like "So you've done nothing so far?" sounds like she was annoyed because she was expecting me to at least be able to help her out, instead it's more like I don't know a thing...

Instead, I was playing with my new HDs that I received, and here's what my computer looks like now

1) 74GB ADFD Raptor (16mb cache)
2) Dual 320gb 7200.10s in RAID-0
3) Seagate 250gb 7200.9
4) Hitachi 160gb 7K250 (PATA)

Lets do math... 74 + 2 * 320 + 250 + 160 = 1.124 TB? Hahaha I'm so scared of a RAID failure because once that does happen, over half of my data is gone... Poof.

The great part is that when you flunk out of college and need money for food, you can sell the drives! Sweet!

This could explain why you can't understand the difference between Cost and Value.

Good luck with that McDonalds job in the future. Maybe mommy and daddy will let you sponge off them for another couple of years.

Then it's a good thing you're using RAID 0, which will double your chances of losing that data!
