Maybe I have something in common with google, I am re-writing large parts (well over 50%) of the harddrives capacity on a daily basis (in the discussed setup). how many people really do that?

I'll bet the people who do are using SCSI disks...

Guess what, I would do that too, if it were affordable. I have to say I have never ever experienced problems like these with SCSI disks. Never. Currently there is a _big_ difference in prices between IDE and SCSI drives. On the other hand one could argue that there is a good reason for it...
