    MegaRaid 320 raid 10 with stripe (not span)

    Thanks! I have also read a manual by FSC that confirms that stripping is used. Now I can use RAID 10 with confidence. The first few generations of LSI raid controllers were using spanning and thus no performance increase was detected. Very happy that they changed this. MCP, MCSA, MCSA+M, MCSE...

    Replacing Raid 5 drives

    I was told that resizing RAID 5 to a larger volume is not supported. You can however do a full backup and then replace one disk after another and wait for rebuild after each disk replacement. I believe you will have an option to resize the volume after all new disks have been used. Keep in mind...

    MegaRaid 320 raid 10 with stripe (not span)

    I know it supports spanning in raid 10. I am also quite familiar with the procedure. Weather this is so called native raid 10 or not is debatable. I know how adaptec makes raid 10 - it uses stripping+mirroring instead of spanning+mirroring. I believe stipping improves performance and increases...

    MegaRaid 320 raid 10 with stripe (not span)

    A year ago there was a debate going on weather LSI MegaRaid would support "true" Raid 10 (Adaptec-like) with stripping rather than spanning. Does anyone know weather this feature had already happened? Performance wise regarding DBs I'd rather use stripping. The spanning only gives you increased...

    Win2003Svr - MOVING network share to SAN w/o downtime

    Have you thought about DFS? Once the files would be copied (automatically) to the new location, you could just remove the original source share location and all users would be automatically relayed to the new location. I think it would take some time to configure the shares to use DFS location...

    2channel megaraid with tape unit on 2nd channel

    We have a RHEL 4 installed on a server with 320-2E megaraid scsi controller. The iButton (RAID KEY) is installed, so we could configure raid5 with 3 disks. It's a 2 channel controller, so we've used the first channel for scsi backplane and disks, while there's a tape drive on the second channel...

    Adaptec HostRaid onboard - need to change disks in Raid-1

    To migrate the system to the new harddisks is the best way to create a image of the system, make the raid new with the new harddisks and restore the image. So after the restoration you might see some "unalocated" space on your hard drive - if your restoration procedure does not resize the...

    Adaptec HostRaid onboard - need to change disks in Raid-1

    I need to replace the disks that are configured in raid1 on a hostraid adapter. The new disks are twice as big, one of the old disks is making problems. I need to migrate the Windows 2000 server onto the new disks and configure them as raid1. How can I do this without reinstalling the OS.

    MCSE - 70-350 or 70-297 ?

    I am not trying to discourage you to take 70-297. Let me just say that I've taken it 3 times in the last 2 months. Failed it the last two times with the score of 674 (700 to pass). I am not the type to give up, so I will keep on trying. The great thing about the exam is learning the "why" to...

    Fujitsu blue-ray based MOs

    Is there any news on the subject? Last year Fujitsu said they were developing a blue-ray solution that's ahead of time. Gigantic storage and such.
