I picked up an old compaq proliant with dual pentitum pros and the compaq smart scsi array controller. I have (4) 4.3gb scsi drives with a raid 5 setup. When I boot up with win2k and it as me to partition the single logical drive....
I tried to max out the partition which is 12776mb and formatted, then installed win2k. The initial files were copied over successfully, but when the computer rebooted, it states a hard drive error or some kind.
Okay .. then I tried a partition of 4000mb and with that I'm able to install win2k with ease.
I'm trying to find out how large I can set my partition to maximize the disk space with a raid 5 setup. Also, want to know what the max partition could be for a raid 0+1 setup.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
