muta.hppa.dev.gentoo.org's md array is struggling. I think at least one drive has died and another might be faulty: From a recent boot: ``` Nov 12 09:34:21 muta.hppa.dev.gentoo.org systemd[1]: Shutting down.

More ST373453LC or what are the requirements on the model? That's a U320 SCA-2 drive. - Are physical sleds/caddies required? - How many slots are present on that host? 146GB/15K U320 are $200-$250/USD ea - entirely within acceptable budget parameters. Or we can just get plain 73GB/10K drives. Please provide more clarity on what model(s) and quantity to buy. Direct links to vendors that sell *new* drives welcomed as well, because there are a LOT of used drives out there.
