Computer Experts help - RAID configuration using two SCSI drives
Now i'm pretty much a n00b in the RAID harddrive configuration but i got my hands on two SCSI drives; one is 36gb the other is 18gb both running at 15,000 RPM. Is it possible to hook thes up together in a RAID0 configuration or do they have to be the same size? What will be the final size of the drive if i successfully connect them in an array; 54, 36 or 18gb? Please excuse my n00bieness, i never did anything like this before. I also plan to use an Adaptec Ultra160 PCI card as the controller. Any computer expert help out plz.

You can't do much of anything raid wise if the disks don't match. 2 disks is also a very poor raid configuration. You would be just a good to use the 36g drive as a regular drive, and back up the best parts to the 18 gig regularly.

You can do a raid with different size drives, but they will be limited to the smallest drive you have, with two drives you can do a mirror, but that may be to slow for what you are doing. The way to go is Raid 5, for that you need one more drive
