Attach only reverses detach!! addspare completes the array and rebuild makes a synchronize. I hope some people can confirm this. I already found some confirmation on the net: http://joseph.randomnetworks.com/archives/category/how-to/ -- Met vriendelijke groeten, With kind regards, Mit freundlichen Gruessen, De jrus wah, Willy ************************************* W.K.
