To preface this, I'm not OS retarded - just BSD retarded ;) I haven't had to mess with my current BSD server since I bought it, and now I have purchased a new p4 3.0(something), 2 gig ram, 2 IDE 200gig HD's to replace it.. Here is my question: How do I setup these multiple drives? What does the "industry" recommend when it comes to setting them up? Should I set BSD up to think its one datasource (so 400gig) and then run from that? Or do I setup 1 drive to hold my web/mail/mysql, and the other to do something elsE? I'm totally lost, so any help would be greatly appericated.. PLEASE don't assume I know what your talking about, because it's a given that I dont! heh :) Many thanks and best regards, Duane
