Hi,


I have to setup a database (MySQL) server this days.
The machine will be a AthlonXP 2000+, 1G RAM, 2x Cheetah X15 36LP series 
drive of 18GB.
And I could spare a 20G ATA100 IDE drive.

I have no experience with vinum, so i want to ask you if it is a good ideea 
to add the IDE drive. I was thinking to use it as a backup drive in case 
the SCSI controller fail. I'm courios about what impact will have on the 
performance of the system and as the server will have to enter in 
production in a few days I do not have the time to play with.


Thanks,
IOnut
