I've got a Sawtooth G4 w/ a RAID controller card and two IBM drives set up as my main drive in RAID mode (I back up regularly to another machine). I'm interested in swapping the drives w/ something more quiet, like a pair of Seagate Barracudas... can anybody tell me how I can safely and (relatively) painlessly ghost my RAID drive to these new drives? >> Stay informed about: ghosting a RAID boot drive?
