Hello Neil,
Is this to say that earlier versions of mdadm did NOT support RAID-0 on
devices larger than 2 TB?
I have been using mdadm 1.6 to create a 4.8 TB RAID-0 array (md0) on top of
two 3ware 2.4 TB Hardware RAID-5 arrays (/dev/sda and /dev/sdb) -- and so far I
don't see any problems. The RAID-0 is created without trouble. The resulting
size is reported as 4.8 TB. The performance is awesome. And, presumably, the
data protection is sound.
Am I missing something?
