It's so funny that the people in this group with the tiniest pea-brains
brag about having the most or biggest hard drives . . .

All that means is that if you have RAID 0 you won't know which hard
drive has been infected, and if you have RAID 1 then both hard drives
will be infected. A RAID array does nothing to protect you against
worms or viruses, only hard drive failures, and a RAID 0 array won't
even protect you against that. In fact a RAID 0 increases the chances
that you will have a mechanical failure at some point.
My computer is set up with both RAID 0 and RAID 1 (RAID 1+0) so that I
get the benefits of boths types of systems. The two hard drives set up
in RAID 0 speed up all reading and writing functions, so opening
programs takes half the time, writing or reading data takes half the
time. Then I have two more hard drives in a RAID 1 array, automatically
backing up everything that happens in the RAID 0 array. For a total of
4 120GB hard drives. (240 GB storage capacity, plus a complete backup).
Nice set-up.... I simply have a complete 80 gig with OS & all programs
loaded. All data is saved to the pony drives. They are not connected
until I require the files. Then again.. like I said... I've never been
infected with a worm or a Trojan... let alone a virus.
