Hi Gordon,
Is there any particular Reason, why a mainboard failure should result in
massive data loss?
But you can be assured, that a disk failure in such a volume will most
certainly result in massive dataloss, since the filesystem spans across
all disks.
Is there any partuclar reason for using truecrypt?

Hello all,
I am trying to create a 10TB network share (like a NAS share, but with
permission levels) on a dedicated GNU+Linux server to be used on a
Linux/Windows network.
I must use truecrypt for full drive encryption.
I need the disks to be independently mountable (no striping, parity bits
or files spanning across physical drives) (this is because I am afraid
of massive data loss from a mainboard failure. If you can show me that
this fear is unfounded and that I would definitely be able to recover my
data after a mainboard failure, then I would not hesitate to use files
spanning across drives).
Most importantly, the combined space of the disks (10TB) must appear as
10TB on the network, not 10 @ 1TB drives (if I were using 1TB drives,
for example).
Resonable continuous write speed is also a factor for me.
It is essential that this drive space can be "mounted" (i.e., "mount
network drive") on a Windows machine.
Different folders must be able to have different permissionn levels for
different users, similar to the permission levels available in Microsoft
shares (write new files/edit files/delete files/make new folders/delete
folders/etc.). After someone connects to the file server, he must not
be able to access every file, only those specificly shared to him.
Can someone point me to info on using truecrypt with LVM?
(I am new to GNU+Linux. File serving on a Windows Active Directory
server is... unpredictable.)
Gordon
