We had a system like that before one could put the load source on RAID
(actually still running that system). The hw/sw of the last few years
allows us to have the load source on RAIDed drives. I'm not an expert on
the subject, but I think RAID would result in slightly less "wasted"
disk space. However, I think with the setup you have, you've got your
bases covered. We had problems with the mirrored load source before and
recovery was accomplished without incident.
I am installing a new 525 system with 18 total drives. 2 drives are in
the system unit, and 16 are in the expansion unit. These are 70 gig
drives. I have set up Raid 5 on the 16 drives in the expansion unit.
I added all the drives to asp 1 and started mirroring. So the 2 drives
in the system unit are mirrored, and the 16 drives in the expansion unit
have Raid 5.
Does any one see any problems with this setup?? I have never had
Mirrored drives before.
Thanks
