Can I set up a raid system that does not use all of the disk in the system?
Short answer, no. Longer answer, the Highpoint RocketRaid controllers, like all other hardware RAID controllers I've ever seen, encapsulate the entire disk as a member of the array. If you go into the Highpoint configuration (CTRL-H on boot) you will see that when you setup an array - RAID 1 for example - you are prompted to select the two disks that will join the array (you simply number them "1" and "2"). The Highpoint controller does not know about any partition information on the drives. -- John LeMay KC2KTH Senior Enterprise Consultant NJMC | http://www.njmc.com | Phone 732-557-4848 Specializing in Microsoft and Unix based solutions
