Greetings
I want to set up a pair of 1 TB drives on an HP DL145 G3 and I'm looking
for suggestions as to the best way to partition them.
Would I be best using software RAID and LVM? Given that it's a fairly
busy machine (mail server for 40+ users) I'd like to achieve:
1) Speed
2) Reliability
3) Ease of maintenance.
Anyone care to take a punt at a layout?
TIA
Nigel.
