Hi,

I was wondering to tryout something 'new' (or new for me at least)

Questions:
1: Will the new setup give ma a performance boost, or just a drop?
1a: If it will give me a performance boost, what will be the impact is both disk are written to at the same time? (but that doesn't happen often!)
2: Will this cause a bigger risk for data loss?

Old setup
320g & 500g with both an 'internal' journal.

New setup
320g with an external journal on the 500g drive
500g with an external journal on the 320g drive

Both disks are WD SATA 7200rpm (probably won't matter i guess)

Thnx guys
