The new mainboard only has connectors for four SATA drives. I currently boot from a single (non-RAIDed) 250GB drive, which holds /, /usr, /var and swap, while /dev/md0 (the two 1TB drives) is mounted on /home. If I buy a fourth 1TB drive I'd also need to get a SATA controller card, plus
Not really. You can put it externally via usb. For example, you can backup your data to the external disk, then delete your existing raid and create the new one. You could even create a raid on two external disks via usb! Of course, slow. Better do two backups. Or you coud add a card for eSATA. - -- Cheers, Carlos E.
