Subject: RE: [PLUG] Adding a second HD to
a Linux system
If somehow, someone is able to write to your webserver doc
directory
and fills up your drive, you will also have
your home directories unable
to be updated (out of
space), unless you partition that new drive into
two
filesystems (one for each).
Can your system use USB drives? If so, I'd put the webserver
docs on
an external USB drive. Since the that drive
will take the most work out
it will most likely be the
first to fail, so make it the easier one to
replace in
the future.
