NAS devices



One of my 'retreads' is a Xeon 2.4GHz quad with 2TB of PATA disk.  Yes, PATA.  Eight by 320GB in a pair of RAID 5 sets (1 hot spare each), concatenated with LVM.  I'm using it as my rsnapshot server.  Works fine, a perfect example of spanning many spindles yielding superior performance.
