In my experience, I have found that the stacker SSWAP is a little buggy.  I
am not sure what exaclty the bug is, but it is a real wierd one.

For eg.  with the Stacked disk swapped,if there is a problem in the disk,
and I try to repair using Norton, I will get an error "disk read only", this
happens very rarely, not all the times.  But as soon asI remove the swapping
business, the problem seems to have been aleviated.

I have hence decided, NOT to SWAP any of my drives.

I am curious to hear about what other folkx have ot say about this.
