Yes, I can...I think.
What it is saying is...it is possible to have a volume or partition extended
over multiple disks. For example; you can have 2 4GB Hard Drives, and it is
possible to Format Drive 1 as let's say Drive D:\, then format 2GB of Drive
2 and add it as an "Extended Partition" of D:\. If you have a 5GB datafile
(or index), the file would be on one "logical" partition, but two physical
hard drives.
You don't want to do this! Thus, "Never split index and data files to
different sets of disks." (UNLESS: you are using RAID...then it makes sense
that your datafiles will be spread over multiple disks).
Hope that helps!
