Lots of replies all saying similar things: what happens if the primary
drive dies, then I don't have swap anymore so the box crashes. So I'll be
mirroring swap asap.

Many thanks for the many replies I received.

Folks,

I use DiskSuite to mirror up my boot drive. Specifically my root and /var
partitions. But I've seen swap mirrored around here too. Does anyone
have a strong opinion for/against mirroring swap? Thanks in advance.

Daryl
