In article <3D5E7748.663AC6DC_at_BACKSIESadelphia.net>, you said (and I quote):

> Hitachi, but in newer EMC Sym towers with large disks, EMC discourages
> the use of RAID5 due to the rebuild time and overhead costs.

Hehehe! Wish they would do the same with the older stuff. Over here, if you so much as suggest non-RAID5 to any of the EMC techos, you get instantly crucified!
Actually their "parity sets" are more like RAID3 than RAID5, but that's another story.
