Well there is a machine that is "a hot backup" problem is that I am going to be taking it with me when I go home over break.... I am not going to take it offline unless one people want me to do it now. OR Christmas comes along. during chrismas when "NO ONE is here" I don't trust things anyway. I plan on building it over christmas unless people want me to do it now... I will change a few hard drives around on the next round and be adding some others.
