I have two questions for the list. I am looking to make a RAID MIRROR using my built in HPT374 raid controller on my ABIT AT7-MAX motherboard. I will be installing the OS, MySQL, BIND9, POSTFIX2, APACHE2, PHP4, and MONO.
I realize I should use separate drives. I will when I have the money. So my questions are: one is there anything special I should keep in mind (like drivers that support this chip and so on) and two when I was creating the array in the BIOS utility it asked what block size I would like to use. I know what a block size is but I don't know what the benefits and drawbacks are to larger vs. smaller block sizes. On a normal desktop I would always say go for the smallest block size. FAT16 or FAT32 I would choose FAT32 as it allows for smaller blocks sizes and other benefits. I realize this is not a discussion on Partition types but I was using it as an example. Any thoughts?
