You can try to disable the drive in the BIOS, the Linux kernel ignores those settings anyway. Chances are though that this won't improve the situation. > BTW, would you recommend RAID5 using an entire disk and two > partitions of another? (If it's even possible to do that...) This kind of defeats the prupose of RAID5, but it is certainly possible using the kernel's software RAID feature. Failure of the disk with the two partitions on it will kill *all your data* because in a RAID5 array only one disk may fail. -- Got Backup? -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
