This week we talk about some new products and spend some time discussing Software RAID as part of a ongoing quest for mass storage to fill the gap created by the removal of DE.

As usual you can listen to the show here.
Hey guys – great show. You've convinced me not to try RAID – waaaay too many restrictions like how to easily grow the pool, what happens if a hard drive dies 2 years from now and I can't get a like-for-like replacement ?
When the next Beta of Vail comes out (minus DE) it would be great if one of you could test it out with FlexRAID and FlexRAID view to see if a DE-like experience can be had – just an idea.
I will tell the Michaels. I am sure we will end up trying every configuration we can. Thank you for listening to the show!
