Subject: nested raid possible?
Date: Thu, 5 Jul 2007 23:38:39 -0400	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <8585506.1183693119573.JavaMail.root@wombat.diezmil.com> (raw)

I have a raid-5 array of six 250gb hard drives.
I just bought four 500gb hard drives.

I know I can take the six drives and make three raid-1 arrays of 500gb.
After doing that, can I make a raid-5 array consisting of the three 
raid-0 arrays, and the four 500gb hard drives?

Thanks,
Jeff
