Update!  

We're now running off of one 250GB disk with another 250GB disk taking
'snapshots' of the system every few hours.

At this stage in the upgrade things are at their most vulnerable and 
slowest (but definitely useable), and now I can start playing with 
the RAID at my leisure (probably not tonight).  

If everything's ready by tomorrow night we might be running on the RAID
(which will also be much faster) by Monday morning.
