I have two old 5GB SCSI disks which aren't fast enough to capture to. I also have one newer 40GB IDE disk which is fast enough. Does anyone know whether, if I put them all together as one logical device under Linux's LVM, the resultant disk is likely to be fast enough to capture to?
I'm not familiar with LVM, but I know that you could use EVMS (http://evms.sourceforge.net/) to combine your two SCSI disks to a software RAID-1 array and put that together with the IDE disk to get one logical volume. The RAID-1 array should give you a considerable speed improvement. Since it's all done in software and we don't know your hardware, I suggest you just try out if it is fast enough.
