Nobody else said it, so I will... your Linux system can also be |
| 5 |
improved by what you don't add, so I would recommend binning the |
| 6 |
drives. It's not worth the effort of trying, and it's a false economy |
| 7 |
to use them. On /tmp, the machine will die if the drive fails. |

As this is the server mailing list, I'll also point out that adding odd |
| 10 |
bits and pieces of hardware to your machines makes groups of servers |
| 11 |
more difficult to manage. You should be working towards standardised |
| 12 |
machines to minimise the number of hardware profiles you need to |
| 13 |
maintain. |
