Which is why I partition my disk. I use one raid for the OS, and another for my data.
but than "fdisk -l" shows partitions - what the hell.....
that above you responded to has no partitions but the whole drive for the RAID

Yup - the raid sits directly on top of the hard drive - AND IS ITSELF PARTITIONED.

Both of those are not normal - it is not normal for a raid to sit on bare drives, and it is not normal for a raid to contain partitions.

(Although there's nothing actually wrong with either :-)
