Guest Ryan Hanisco Posted February 16, 2008 Posted February 16, 2008 RE: hELP me setup RAID 5 please or a good guide Hi MSExchangeStudent, The best way to handle RAID is to do it on hardware rather than letting windows do it for you. This gives you a much better recovery path and easier management. I usually find doing it in software is slower and more trouble than it is worth. If you have to do it in software, take a look at: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/898414 http://technet2.microsoft.com/windowsserver/en/library/cb871b6c-8ce7-4eb7-9aba-52b36e31d2a11033.mspx?mfr=true As to running SBS, you are right that they are on the same server. It is essentially the same as running them separately, but that SBS gives you some additional management tools. -- Ryan Hanisco MCSE, MCTS: SQL 2005, Project+ http://www.techsterity.com Chicago, IL Remember: Marking helpful answers helps everyone find the info they need quickly.
