Good luck to anyone with hard drive problems, I know it's a pain.

Yup, I run mirrored 120 gig drives in my main system...about 40% used...my other machine here has 3 drives of varying sizes. All are 'ghosted' to a single 120 gig external usb drive with room to spare
Agreed, best of luck to anyone with drive problems. And whatever you do...once you get up and running again...put some kind of seemless backup system in place. We rely on these machines too much to do otherwise. Personally, for the cost/benefits...I'm a big fan of Ghost
