Message-ID: MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII Sender: owner-current@freebsd.org Precedence: bulk Hi... I've seen some discussions go by dealing with the ability to make multiple drives look like one big drive, and I'm curious as to what is involved in doing so? Mainly, isn't that what the swap devices are doing already? Or is there something extra that needs to be added when combining several drives into one virtual drive? This is purely out of curiosity...
