Hello list,

I need a cost-effective solution for hot-swap hard drives.  I'm
currently using a removable drive cage available at any CompUSA, but
it's standard IDE/ATA, which is, AFAIK, not hot-swappable.  What kind
of RAID hardware/software would I need so that I can hot swap hard
drives?

TIA


I don't know what kind of case you have for this server, or if you're
looking for an external enclosure.

I've never used a Promise controller before, they seem pretty popular
for this though.
