    This is good. Please keep reporting :-) Did you experience any stability
    issues as sudden system freezes and the likes? I really need high uptimes.

    I guess I will work with software RAID as I've had good experience with it.
    LVM is on my "to learn" list but I haven't really seen any advantage of it
    that would make me run and scream ;-)

    regards,
    Tobias
