Click the link. It's a Dell with RAID 5. Granted there is only one, but it's a start. There may be more in time.Aug 8, 2007 Comment Link

And, make the drives hot-swappable. And, what about dual-redundant, hot-swappable power supplies, while we're at it???Aug 8, 2007 Comment Link

I'm sorry what was your question? (Not an option, but it's there.)
