Re: mirrored disk and OS

My experience with a 520 with 2 mirrored disk was not bad for:

data entry
batch processing with moderate i/o
daily operations
developing

very very slow in:

deleting, copy or renamng libraries
install new products
PTF

I suspect COMMIT operations are deadly.

We finally added 2 disks (mirrored)

Is it possible to mirror the only drives (2 - 70 gig)

Of course. Its just very, very, very, very slow. If less than 5 users
- go for it.
