I prefer using SCSI disks and setting the hardware Write-Protect jumper.
 Fast and Safe.  With a good OS you only need a disk for temp and log
files, the rest goes on the WP disk.  Do all of your development on a
mirror machine, then bake.  When thoroughly cooked (tested, for those
who didn't stuff out on the American bastardization called Thanksgiving)
mount in external server and enjoy!
