Well, I would say... postpond your RAID for a few weeks and gather the money to buy the disks. On a mission critical system, a RAID -5 is really worth in both stability, performance and fault tolerance. >=20 > Btw. What hardware raid controlers (sata) do you listmembers recommend ? There are very few things which really dont work under FreeBSD. Just some work out of the box and some needs a little attention like a misbehaved kid.
