I'd make each RAID1 be an LVM physical volume, combine the two PVs into a volume group, and assign logical volumes (LVs) from that VG. Sounds like you'd want most or all of your space in a single large LV but this gives you flexibility and a convenient path for future growth. --Mike Bird -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
