Oggetto: RAID: why?
If we're talking about systems for home use, it seems sensible enough
to me to have two large storage devices in physically seperate, but
networked machines, that can crossmount and back each other up.

With the low cost of todays hard disk media, particularly in
comparison to the cost of backup systems, this seems like it would be
cheaper more often than not, and only unfeasable for companies that
process masses of data daily (e.g. a store's sales) .. for which RAID
isnt appropriate either, anyways (something more like tape backup
instead..)
