Sorry for my ignorance, but what is "That"? I did recieve all the compaq
software (as far as I know anyway). And I did use the software to setup
up the two hard drives for RAID 1. My problem is the array not rebuilding
itself while I'm running FreeBSD once I plug in a new drive. I have to 
use one of the compaq utitlies.

One of my co-workers spent about three hours on the phone with compaq
today trying to get it worked out, but no luck. They really want me to 
install Windows NT on it for some reason.

Does it rebuild the replacement drive while the operating system is
running? That's where I'm running into trouble.
