[cobalt-users] Is the RaQ XTR now worth buying???

[James Dean Young <jd@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Cobalt recalled these some time ago. I have heard stories of crashes 
and whatnot. I am VERY used to all the other RaQs, and have been 
using them since 96. I just had a hard drive fail on the RaQ41, but 
it has come back up and I am SURE it will go back down...I need some 
RAID to feel better...although I am real leery of using the terms 
RAID and IDE in the same sentence, let alone using them in the same 
BOX! ;-)

Can anyone let me know if the XTR is a good buy? Is the RaQ4r a better buy?

Is it STABLE?

Does the raid set up even WORK? Has anyone ever hot swapped a drive in it?

PLEASE let me know ASAP as I am ready to buy!
