This is one addiction the court can't order you into rehab for!

I thank you my wife does not. She wanted to know why I was spending time with her all the sudden.

Failing HD's... I hate that. This is one of the reasons why I run raid on all of my machines:

Home box:

Code:

===============================================================================
 1 WINDOWS VOLUME     1   Raid6    129.0GB 00/00/00   Normal
 2 MAC VOLUME         1   Raid6     30.0GB 00/00/01   Normal
 3 LINUX VOLUME       1   Raid6    129.0GB 00/00/02   Normal
 4 DATA VOLUME        1   Raid6   35712.0GB 00/00/03   Normal

As I work in the web-hosting industry I know downtime is pretty much unavoidable sometimes unless you are paying a ton of money in load balancers, multiple servers, and mysql replication and its not easy to manage. Downtime is to be expected for just a free community forum and generally I find the site running very well/fast. Glad there wasn't any major data loss.
