Just out of curiosity I replaced the single drive IDE cables on my 2200 with normal dual-drive cables and connected two extra drives set as slaves. I now have a four-drive Snap server. I made a big striped disk which worked fine. The PSU seemed to cope with the extra load.

One wonders if this would let people with single-drive Snap servers make drive backups and maybe mirrors?

Could the 4400 OS be installed on such a 4-drive 2200 system?
