Enable RAID 1 support for Optiplex series desktops.

90 points posted to Desktops, Servers and Storage, OptiPlex products by lester67 03/07/07

Enable RAID1 support for Optiplex series desktops, and include a quick utility that allows an email to be sent in the event of a drive failure. Possibly pair this up with a way to mount two laptop HDD's in a 3.5 HDD space, for desktop, and small factor implementation.

Dell gets to sell twice as many hard drives on the Optiplex, and drive failures become a nuisance not a show-stopper.

Jun 15		 According to this (http://www.dell.com/content/products/productdetails.aspx/optix_755?c=us&cs=55...) web site, RAID1 is available on the Optiplex 755 range, and whilst i've not yet ordered any boxes with it, the next 755 order I place will probably be equipped with RAID1.
