    Video Card(s) to drive 6 monitors with DVI input only

    Alternatives to RAID that still offer parity? My new Build

    Thanks for the ideas guys, I was already looking at flexraid, but it only takes snapshots I understand? For amahi/ZFS I would not be able to use my windows 7 OS, but could I install either of them in a VM? Does anyone have any experience of them? Need to keep windows 7 as the base os as I use...
