I'm running 2 x 2Gb - I knew 4Gb might be a little light for a
machine that I expect to be running more VMs as time goes on.
I couldn't find 4Gb PC-6300 modules... :(

Well, you can use other Filesystems with the RAID setup - basically,
you create a partition on each disk of type "Linux RAID
autodetect",
then assemble these together using mdadm - they present a virtual
RAID volume, which can be formatted with whichever filesystem you
prefer.

no, I don't actually - but I do have one of the Maplin power meters -
if I get the chance to power the guy down over the weekend, I'll
check how much juice it takes.
