RAID (aka the proof)

[mkauspe]

Ok, I got a stock sawtooth from the school district I work for. It had 
a 27GB HD in it so I added a 30GB onto the same chain as the slave 
drive. Then I added some RAM of course (3 128's and 1 256 to 640MB some 
are PC100 others are PC133) and booted off the OS 10.2 CD. Then I 
opened disk utility and saw the RAID tab. So I clicked on it and 
followed directions. All I had to do was grab each disk and drag it 
over to the RAID window. Then I partitioned it as one drive and called 
it "hard drive" (very creative! haha). thats it, after that i ran the 
install and everything went smoothly.
I did have a problem after I installed classic to run some ROM flashes 
and updates then i couldn't boot. So I had to install OS X on another 
HD and then choose my old array as the start up disk, since then 
absolutely no problems. In fact the Mac is very speedy and quite 
enjoyable.
Let me know if you need more details. I will post more screen shots. 
Thanks,
