Rob,

I agree wholeheartedly on the need of establishing at RAID set with at
least 4 drives. Let me point out, if I may, that four or more could be,
maybe, considerably better, as per the Merrian-Webster dictionary: 

infinitesimally
Function: adjective
1 : taking on values arbitrarily close to but greater than zero
2 : immeasurably or incalculably small
- in·fin·i·tes·i·mal·ly /-m&-lE/ adverb

Cheers,

Luis Rodriguez
