My main server went down early last Thursday (2005-06-16) because of a disk failure. I've never liked Maxtor drives-- and that was what we lost. The replacement is a Seagate which I like a little better. Although my provider replaced the drive in a resonable amount of time, I wasted two and half days fucking around with Fedora and getting no where. The server gets Fedora Core 2 by default, which is inadequate for numerous reasons. Anyway, the previously successful upgrade didn't go so well this time and I ended up with an unbootable server and much, much more downtime than anticipated.
