<What would be the point of doing a RAID with 1 drive :)  You get 0
redundency.>

True, in theory.  But suppose you are working on a 1,000 page leagl "brief",
then all of a sudden you hid a bad sector in your hard drive which causes your
document to become corrupted?

A new question.  Will the same-drive RAID help in a virus infested situation?  
For example, suppose I downloaded a Microsoft Word .doc file which contains
a macro virus.  Will this Microsoft virus do the same damages on the redundent
partition?
