Pending Disk Failure / Hardware Upgrade

let's see... 24Gb RAM and 2Tb HDD.... hmmmmm... *might* be enough to run chrome with a couple of tabs open :rolleyes:

:-D :-D I wouldn't want to run short, lauren. That's why I also keep a pair of 1 TB USB drives handy; they're slow, but hold a lot of naughty pictures! ;)

After taking an Acronis image: Use Acronis to verify the image. Images are large - mine are around 40 GB - and one bit out of place in the image will ruin it. I rarely do get an image that fails to verify, rendering it useless. This is probably due to defect on the drive, more than a fault of the software. It is just worth while to verify!
You seem to be fairly up to date on this, so I ask, if I'm upgrading to a RAID 1 array using the hardware and BIOS level configuration, will the WD version of Acronis work? The documentation says that this version doesn't support RAID arays, but it seems to me that, if this is done in hardware, the Acronis will 'see' it as a single drive. Is that correct?
