hel Posted February 28, 2007 Share Posted February 28, 2007 How to create RAID arrays(stripped and mirrored) on 2 SATA disks while installing system? I saw some disk utility, but I can not figure out how, what are procedures to create RAID arrays and relate to disks or partitions..... I need two RAID arrays - one stripped on two first partitions(32GB each) for system, after them on two partitions RAID mirrored array for an information. Thanks a lot for real answer, not to refer.... Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/43794-how-to-create-raid-while-installing/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
DiaboliK Posted February 28, 2007 Share Posted February 28, 2007 (edited) its impossible. especially using our darwin bootloader it wouldnt know what to boot. altho you can use raid arrays for other things like storage, but not for the main os Edited February 28, 2007 by DiaboliK Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/43794-how-to-create-raid-while-installing/#findComment-313061 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brokencomp.com Posted February 28, 2007 Share Posted February 28, 2007 its impossible.especially using our darwin bootloader it wouldnt know what to boot. Yep, just confirmed this last week, with 2 74GB raptor's. They went back after i found out.

macgirl Posted February 28, 2007 Share Posted February 28, 2007 Is not for fun, it works, but booting from RAID (created from disk utility) needs a real Mac. you can creat mirrored array or striped array, it will work as data partition not for booting.
