I often wonder when my CMC drive is going to fail (and what I'll do then).
I've had it for nearly four years now, two of them running a BBS 24 hours
a day.  It's about the size of a large toaster oven, and sounds like a little
gnome is knocking on the inside of it, but it works great.  I finally bought
a bunch of ram and installed ProSel's large ram cache.  It cut down on the
knocking so much that I figure I probably doubled the life of the drive.
