with raid 10 all four drives will appear as a single physical device shared by all. I'm personally not a big fan of logical partitioning of a single raid device unless you are trying to keep a physical volume under 1 TB for example. Each sync on the volume is guaranteed to sync all 4 disks regardless of how you set your partitions up. > - I want to know if 3ware 9500 S is recommended or if its one of those > controllers which sucks. escalade is a fairly full featured raid controller for the price. consider it the ford taurus of raid controllers, it's functional and practical but not sexy. Their S line is not native sata but operates over a pata->sata bridge.
