Hi Kai, Thanks for your advice.
The RAID-0 box is for test purpose. The RAID controller needs a driver to run but it works for Windows only. There is no driver for Linux therefore Redhat can't see a single drive but 2 drives instead. I have no idea about Gentoo and just try to test it as advised that it is possible.

I know some thing about software RAID on Redhat but not software RAID on Windows.

Is there a ""Software-RAID-HOWTO" in Gentoo or just the same as Redhat Kindly advise. Thanks in advance. B.Regards Stephen To Get Your Own iCareHK.com Email Address?
