Thanks, so I can get myself another identical HDD and a, say 100Gb HDD put the Idenitcal one on the SATA and RAID5 (instead of the current 0) should reduce the mean time to failiure and mean I can be more lazy about backups.

The 100Gb can be used for backup, put in the other PC as a storage device etc.

I imagine this will mean a complete reinstall of the OS and rebuild?
