I have HPT 372 controller, not being used as raid as the moment. I have been considering setting up raid system again (did once before with SuSE 7.3).
Since I had dual boot, Win98 and SuSE I often saw errors when booting into
Winbloze: it wanted to re-setup the raid system and I regularly refused it, and sometimes got some irregular errors. Can I set up a raid system that does not use all of the disk in the system? For example, if I have 4 x 40Gb disks, could I reserve first 20Gb on each disk for Windoze (total 80G on all four drives) and use the second half of each disk for a raid system, 0+1, (total 40Gb, striped, mirrored)? Thanks for any advice. Richard
I don't know the HPT controller, but in general: Software RAID - Yes Hardware RAID - No Greg -- Greg Freemyer
