I have no idea of the life epectancy of those but I would also look at using 3 x
2.5" laptop drives instead, also in RAID 5. You can get a 60GB version for
about $50

Man, what a golden age this is. A silent 60 Gb server in the size of

impressive. Stick ten of 'em together and build a slow Beowulf.
