Wow! Are you using WD 2TB drives with a Perc6i? This is amazing if you 
are using desktop drives on a server. AFAIK you can only use 1TB Seagate 
Baracuda's rated for 24/7 operation. What is your electric bill like 
running a 2900 series box at home?  I don't often post but this is very 
intriguing.
