    Software Raid?

    Before posing this question I did in fact convert my disks to dynamic, of course, because only through dynamic disks can you have software raid.

    Software Raid?

    I asked in the Microsoft Forums and the response I received was: "Mirrored volumes are not available on computers running Windows XP. You cannot create mirrored volumes or RAID-5 volumes on Windows XP Home Edition, Windows XP Professional, or Windows XP 64-Bit Edition-based computers."

    using SBS 2003 as a workstation & adding it to the domain

    Hi Gang, I need to come up with a way to create redundancy for a workstation that runs a special application. (Raid 1) Hardware RAID was deemed too expensive. So because SBS 2003 supports software raid I was wondering if I could install the OS on a regular workstation for the sake of software...

    Software Raid?

    Hi Gang, I noticed that Windows XP Pro doesn't support software raid. I need to figure out a way to configure a windows xp system with raid 1. Hardware raid is an option of course however I'm wondering if there are any alternatives? Thanks.

    Does this controller offer RAID?

    I found an adaptec controller in one of our older PCs and was wondering if it "does" RAID. I understand that it controls SCSI disks, but it's unclear to me how RAID does or doesn't fit into the big picture. Here's the Part Number: AHA-2950U2B Any help is appreciated. Thanks,

    Remove Run from Start Menu BUT allow UNC access

    I understand that it is possible to prevent users from launching executables using GPO. With this in mind could you prevent users from launching the run executable? I'm not sure what that .exe would be named however I have had success in preventing certain clients from launching IE with this...

    Brushes...now you see 'em now you don't

    Hi Gang, I can't tell you how excited I am to see that my favorite place for solving my window server issues also supports PS.

    adding a wireless access point to the network?

    I see, I assume this means the access point is configured for DHCP, what about the switch? Is that also running DHCP? I assume not as that could cause problems if duplicate IP addresses start getting issued.
