Related to this, I just picked up a new mobo last night with a 250gb sata drive. The mobo has hardware raid (promise) and
no it doesn't (promise!) I'll dig up refs later - google for 'jeff garzik software raid'
But, having said that, can I set this up and then add other drives to the Raid array
possibly but not a good idea
and LVM later?
yes, if you set lvm up now
I know having a 1 drive RAID array does absolutely nothing, but having LVM set up with only one drive allows me to add drives to this without having to erase all the data on that drive when I want to do LVM...I already did that dance once...
yes - excellent idea
Is having a hardware RAID and LVM overkill?
hardware raid is a waste of time - lvm isn't
