400 gigs
I now have five 80 gb hard drives. four of which I plan to put into my desktop (which currently hosts two) into a RAID-5, RAID-0, RAID-1+0, or RAID-0+1 configuration. The other will be kept as a backup in case one of the drives fails, and in teh meantime may serve as backup for my 100gb external drive, which stores most of my worthwhiel data, and will soon hopefully hold at least a copy of all of my worthwhile data. Backing that up seems like it would be a good idea, since I’ve been a really long time without suffering any drive failures. Not that the amount of time statistically matteres, but it sure feels like I’m pressing my luck…
