    RAID Question

    Posted by Dave Potts on July 24, 2007 at 4:52 pm

    Hi Cows,

    Just a quick question about RAID partitioning… One of our Adrenalines has a Medea array attached to it that is striped as one partition, but the software (MC ver. 7.2) seems to recognize it as 4 separate drives. It’s quickly becoming a pain in the neck keeping all of our media straight and organized, and I was wondering if this was a resolvable issue with the Medea drives, or if it might just be due to the personal preference of the system guy who set up our machines. Our other system is identical except that its a few months older and has a different (non-Medea) RAID attached to it, and the software seems to recognize it as a single disk. Any help or advice would be appreciated.

    Thanks!

    Yes you can strip the array as obne large partition. How is the array configured under the Device Manage of Windows? It is the striped as 4 separate partitions? or one large one?
