Thanks John, I appreciate it! Both are being replaced after a nearby 55 KV power line shorted to ground and blew a manhole cover 50' into the air, damaging a lot of equipment over here, even those on UPS's. Nobody was hurt, thank goodness. But, I'll be looking into RAID 5 in the future.
In these days of multi-terabyte drives you should be looking at RAID6 instead. The chances of a 'double failure' during degraded operation/resync is too high to ignore.
