I'm using unix system for data storage.  Using old 700MHz P3 and 80GBx4 software RAID5 on Promis Ultra 100 cards.  It's cheap and safe way to keep data alive from drive failure.

All files/folders are exported as read-only, so Windows program cannot modify them.  However, kinda virus or worm may be able to kill my files...  I'm just trying to not think about them since I don't have money to back up them.  ;D

Hehehe.  It's the perfect way to protect my data from fire/flood/any other physical damage.  I prefer to use my office space for that purpsoe instead your house, though.  ;D
