Yep, that sounds pretty bad. I hadn't seen R-Studio before, it looks interesting.

The only reason I use Dynamic Disks at all is on a low-rent W2K server box w/o hardware RAID. I use it to mirror & RAID 5 on some old 4 & 8 GB SCSI drives. I know DD gives Powerquest products heartburn, even their server products. It was hard finding anyone with good things to say about it when looking for that little tidbit.

Good thing you have an empeg with (hopefully all!) your music on it. I know how you feel. I corrupted a few hundred mp3's in a misguided overclocking attempt about 6 years ago, no empeg to save me then. I renamed a lot of .chk files by hand. Ugh.
