Ah ha.... # ls -l /sys/block/*/holders/* lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 0 Feb 26 06:28 /sys/block/sdb/holders/dm-0 -> ../../../block/dm-0 lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 0 Feb 26 06:28 /sys/block/sdc/holders/dm-0 -> ../../../block/dm-0
which I am assuming is dmraid? I did a quick check, and # dmraid -r No RAID disks Doesn't look like there is anything defined. I know that both sdb and sdc (as well as sda) are connected to SATA cards which support RAID under windows... However, I know there is no arrays defined on them on the cards (at least not by me)... I will bounce the server again and check.
