Alex, Sorry, the reason you got no response is because the LSI (or whatever vendor) MegaRAID software is a for a proprietary HARDWARE raid implementation. This list is for opensource Linux SOFTWARE raid. The MegaRAID software used to manage the proprietary hardware RAID card and drives (while opensourced a while back) has nothing at all to do with Linux software RAID discussed here. Once you get your problem sorted out, (or if you can't), you might consider just using your raid card as a simple disk controller and creating a Linux software RAID array on that -- then your questions would be relevant here. (and unless you are saturating your hardware raid setup relying on a battery-powered write-back cache, then good old free software raid here will likely match or exceed the I/O performance of your current hardware card :) -- David C. Rankin, J.D.,P.E. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-raid" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
