I have 2x WD10EACS 16MB Drives and want to add some WD10EADS 32MB Drives to the same array, is this possible?

I am using RR2340 to run RAID and cant find any info about this, i don't see it being a problem, but i could be wrong....

The cache memory will not have any effect on the raid setup.

Very good, i was hoping for that answer, I imagine it only operates as the smallest amount, like RAM.
