[MLB-WIRELESS] OT: URGENT MIRRORING SOFTWARE

[Matt Pearce]

Just a quick follow up post, I managed to get another identical HDD and get
the mirror function on the raid to actually mirror the good HDD for a trial
and it worked !!.  The bad news is that when I came to try and mirror the
bad HDD there was to much damage done already and it wouldnt allow it :-(  I
dont know if thats the proper use for a built in raid 0+1 function but it
almost worked except for all the bad sectors :-(

Thanks for all your suggestions.

Matt.
