[BC] RAID servers

[Bernie Courtney]

I'm not sure what your experiences were, but I know plenty of people that
use HP servers, many as audio servers actually that have had no problems
using RAID on them.  If somebody really tried to reformat the logical drive
(as opposed to *rebuilding* the array) then they were the cause of their own
perils.
