I don't know about Expanz, but it's probably like Stacker which I do know about. Stacker can run as software only. So if you lose your card, you DON'T lose your data. You do take a 10-20% performance hit running just the software though. -- Bill Svirsky, Citicorp+TTI, 3100 Ocean Park Blvd., Santa Monica, CA 90405 Work phone: 213-450-9111 x2597 svirsky@ttidca.tti.com | ...!{csun,psivax,rdlvax,retix}!ttidca!svirsky
