RAID10 for FERRARI

Today I set up a RAID10 (stripe+mirror) configuration for FERRARI. I used 4 Western Digital Caviar 320GB drives (3200 series). Total size is 594GB.

Setup was extremely simple. Hit CTRL+S or F4 during the SiliconImage boot screen. Choose "Create New Raid Set". Specify RAID10. Done.

When installing Windows XP on the new RAID array, I needed a 3.5" floppy with the SiliconImage 3114 drivers. Luckily I had burned a CD of them as a backup earlier. I was able to use another machine to copy them to a floppy.
