One performance point about RAID level 5- when you RAID a bunch of disks, you lose the ability to put files (or chunks, etc) on a particular physical volume. In a RAID environment, you have to have two or more arrays to be able to do this. Christos Liacouras Transaction Network Services (703) 478-7662
