I'm planning on mirroring and striping 4 drives on 2 controllers. I've
never done striping before, but have done mirroring with 2 drives on the same
controller. Anyone have any suggestions on the best way to do this? Do I
mirror on the same controller or across controllers? What order are things
done? Stripe the drives and mirror the stripes or mirror the drives and
stripe the mirrors? Any and all suggestions greatly appreciated. Thanks.
