Hi, mdadm is the tool and raid0 will do what you want (500+500=1000). Assume all data will be lost in case of a problem with the raid, in practice it could be possible to recover some data, but I wouldn't count on that. Backup, raid0 increases the likeliness of a failure. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
