-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Pardon the noise, but I'm wondering if softraid supports nested raid types?
Specifically, I'm looking to do a raid 0+1 over 4 drives. A mirror of stripes. wd1 & wd2 would be striped to stripe0 wd3 & wd4 would be striped to stripe1 stripe0 would be mirrored to stripe1. Is this even possible with bioctl? I'm currently assembling my hardware, and I would like to at least ask a high-level question before digging into the low-level areas. The reason I ask, is the softraid and bioctl man pages do not mention nesting capabilities. Or, am I going about this the wrong way and should I concatenate wd1+2 & wd3+3 and then mirror? I'm not looking to create a bomb-proof solution, just something to create a little bit of fault tolerance in my home data store. And lastly, can I create my wd1+2 stripe, populate the data, then create my second stripe & mirror and rebuild/cross pollinate?
