On my server, I use RAID-1 for swap as well. Why risk the system crashing |
| 19 |
because half the swap dissappears suddenly because of a drive failure? |

There actually is only 1 system that I use regularly with a RAID-0 partition. |
| 22 |
And that machine is only used for virtual machines I use for testing. If that |
| 23 |
one dies, worst that happens is I need to recreate the images. Not a big loss |
| 24 |
for me. |
