Yeah, I've run s/w radi for long time and never really had any problems. I 
just replace the drive when one goes bad. Since I always put a spare it works 
seemlessly.

I just have never done it with Asterisk. I don't think I would use s/w raid 
with it either. I don't want my cpu's to be busy with drives if it's not 
needed. SCSI then becomes a good choice too.
