Dell Poweredge T100 RAID 1 setup
I have a new Poweredge T100 It is running SBS 2003 R2. It is supposed to be set up for RAID 1. In MyComputer, I can only see the OS Dive (C:) and DATAPART (D:). I see no indication of RAID or mirrored drives. How can I tell if the RAID 1 is set up correctly. At this point I see no indication of...

Migrating two new 1TB drives to RAID 5 array
Using AMD's RAIDXpert, I added two new 1TB drives to an existing RAID 5 array. The existing array already held data. After migrating the new drives (assuming this would allow me to save my preexisting data) and restarting my computer, I am asked to reformat the array. I would really like to recover...

Deleting Files on the Backup Drive
In RAID 1 mirroring, are files on the backup drive deleted when the original files on the source drive are deleted? Very basic question!

Intel Matrix Storage Manager
Will I loose data if I go to mirrored/RAID drives? I bought a HP e9180f with Vista 64 pre-installed on a 1T drive. I have another 1T drive from my old machine.

RAID 5 and disk capacity
You mention that fewer than four disks (three) on RAID-5 isn't worth it. Why?

RAID 5 and three-way mirroring
Our Spac solaris 10 box has only three disks (budge limitation), and they were configured with hardware RAID 1 (3-way). Obviously, the disk performance is going to suffer since both OS and DATA will live on the same mirrored disks, however, this part of disk configuration puzzles me even more: a...
