Can anyone point me to some information on how to configure a Compaq Presario G2 with different sized hard drives in the bays? I have two 36.4 GB drives, two 73.8 GB drives, and 4 18.2 GB drives to choose from. I've never set up a drive array with different sized hard drives before. Would I need a separate RAID configuration for each group of drives?
 
well it's best not to mix

depends what config you want
you can mix them but you sacrifice the space - you can use the additional space as a separte lun
