If we can come up with a $100 to $200, we should definitely get two
drives and mirror them. I dropped two Seagate 320GB SATAs in my
server at home in a Linux software RAID1, and it's plenty good for my
purposes.
how long did it take to initialize the mirror? i replaced a 500 in a box
one time and it took over 2 days to finish mirroring the existing data.

These new drives promise 3.0Gb/s throughput. Is that read or write or
what? I don't know, but it really shouldn't take that long to move 500 GB
of data!
Hmmm... NewEgg.com will get us two 320 GB drives of this type for $160
(free S/H):
Western Digital Caviar SE16 WD3200AAKS 320GB 7200 RPM SATA 3.0Gb/s Hard
Drive - OEM
Which is cheaper than I thought. We have to know exactly which type of
drive our system wants.
