That's a very good point never thought of that.  Acrtually this RAID 1 setup I'm planning
is for my desktop machine, problem is is's not built like a server so there is not the traditional 
slid in bay for a second PS as do many 1 and 2u rack servers have.  Unless there is some
specialty product available that somehow fits in to a tower case.  

Could you reccomend a redundant PS for a desktop machine (if they exist)?
