Woods" Subject: Disk Striping Sender: owner-hackers@freebsd.org X-Loop: FreeBSD.org Precedence: bulk I just got my news server up and running INN (thanks to everyone that helped), but now I'm looking for a better way of dealing with it. I've got 3 Fast/Wide 4gb disks to hold news. It would be a lot easier (and better performance) if I could stripe (or span) the /var partition accross the 3 disks instead of having to guess as to how to partition each drive and into what sizes. The question: Is there a way to stripe a partition across multiple drives in FreeBSD? If not, does anyone know of a FreeBSD like OS that will do it? Preferably NOT Linux. Thanks, Darrin R.
