Hi, :)

 I was under the impression that the system partition /
drive could not be duplexed. Especilly because if the
page file.

I always thoht this was a bum deal, too. ;)

Yet, I was looking on HP site at the souped up 680 series
and one has twin SATA duplexed drives.

So what the real story?
Is HP pulling another stunt?

I think the whole boot and sytem should be able to be
duplexed, along with the install giving options of what
to install on what partiton.
You know, like real computer OS's do.
I am so sick of bad drives. One little screwed up
register and no programs on the other partiton work.
One bad HDD and nothing works.

I want a Smart-Part installer built in.
And I want it yesterday.

I want duplexed system drives.
And I don't ever want to see anothe drive letter again.

Make it happen.
