Damn David, this guy is almost as hung up on the 320's as I was, but wishing don't change anything.

Sorry Sifter, it don't work that way. You may only see 900 GB of storage, but there is still another 300 GB of parity data there that the OS and hardware has to deal with. In other words, the OS sees all 1.2TB of it. Which equals not supported. It tries, and may appear to work, but it doesn't. At least not correctly.

So one LAST TIME... 4 x 250 GB like we have told you about 5 times now... -OR- Use RAID 1 mirror Arrays and individual drives, not RAID 0 or RAID 5.
