The box has 1 ide and 4 scsi disks. But I had to remove scsi cables and can't find a replacement at the moment, so it's on ide for now. Squid is also on the server. So I guess, when scsi disks are back online, I'll dedicate 2 to squid, and 2 in a vinum mirroring array with softupdates disabled for more important things, like cvs repos, distfiles, etc.
