Hello Neil, Is this to say that earlier versions of mdadm did NOT support RAID-0 on devices larger than 2 TB? I have been using mdadm 1.6 to create a 4.8 TB RAID-0 array (md0) on top of two 3ware 2.4 TB Hardware RAID-5 arrays (/dev/sda and /dev/sdb) -- and so far I don't see any problems. The RAID-0 is created without trouble. The resulting size is reported as 4.8 TB. The performance is awesome. And, presumably, the data protection is sound. Am I missing something?
