| I found out, that its impossible to convert RAID0 with 1 HDD (so its nothing close to raid with only 1 HDD) to RAID1 on 2 HDDs without data loss. I will try to create RAID1 array on the 2 other empty HDDs and copy the OS&data from the first HDD to this Array.
My first question: which tool should I use to copy it in the easiest way? (Ghost, ImageDrive, something from Acronis...?) - its NTFS partition with W2K Server installed and running.
And I have a second question. We have new 140GB HDD Ultra320 SCSI drive, which the owner planned to integrate to the x235 server (with 3x36GB, and future config on these should be 2xHDD in an Array with RAID1 mode and the last HDD as hot-spare or unused). Is there a way to create an array on ServeRAID5i controller with RAID1 with 1x36GB and 1x140GB in such a way that we can use the remaining capacity of the 140GB HDD for other data (140-36GB= cca 104 unformated for other NTFS?)or is the remaining capacity automatically lost?? Thx in advance for any comments on this. |
