I have a G4 1.33GHz single (therefore Ultra ATA drives) running
10.3.9, and will soon have critical data on RAID-1 mirrored drives.
I'd very much appreciate any advice about choosing a machine for
failover, criteria follow:
-the ability to quickly swap to another machine (< 1hr) is important
-having an additional user machine would be nice
-cost is an issue, but a $1000 difference is not insurmountable
-as this is my first time working in this capacity, I have no real
idea of how (un)likely a catastrophic failure is for an XServe--am I
unduly concerned? It's performed very well for 6 months, sharing a
room with infectious agents, neurotoxins, radioisotopes, and eek!--an
ice machine.
I had thought that a PowerMac G5 using Ultra-ATA disks might be
best... TIA, gurus, for input.
-Phil
