TY Grant, I just found that out myself this evening whilst reading
several documents on RAID in more detail. Not only reliability, speed is
also at stake. Yup, time to open the system case again and improve stuff.

If I switch one of the disks to the second IDE controller, where do I
have to make relevant changes in order to be sure my system boots
properly next time?

Sh.

PS Now where did I leave that money tree, so I can get rid of all this
and install proper SCSI material!
