I don't expect huge files (maximum file size should be about 250MByte), but a lot of middle size files and millions of tiny files. Will this work? Do you expect any problems with the partition table? Many thanx in advance Harri ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 5+ messages in thread

I've used a 250GB and 400GB RAID array with 2.2.x kernels w/o any problems. We have several thousands of ~1 MB and >100 MB files. -- ===================================================================== Mohammad A.
