    Yes, doing a Raid rebuild is risky in that if another drive fails you have no backup. Kaleidescape therefore recommend you don’t force a raid rebuild, Thank you for pointing that out, I should have been more clear Adding drives is not risky, and I can’t see how swopping the hot spare is risky...

    FOR SALE: 1U server, 4x750GB, Grandfathered, New PSU, in UK

    Its worth adding that there are a few scratches on the lid (where it has been taken in/out of rack mount case), and the server is from Jan 2011, and drives set is a bit older Thanks Richard

    FOR SALE: 1U server, 4x750GB, Grandfathered, New PSU, in UK

    I'm in UK and selling a 1U server with 4x 750GB drives. I've put a new PSU in it and a new battery on the motherboard as old one was a bit low in voltage. It has the Kaleidescape demo content (i.e like new) on it. It is grandfathered, i.e has DVD import rights, and of course you can replace...
