Ok, so I have 300gig hd I just want for the OS. Then I have 3x1.5tb hds. I want them to be in RAID 5. (Every hd in the system is SATA)
How should I go about doing this? I wanted to use mdadm, except that's a Linux thing.
1. How would I go about setting it up with the different software RAID options?
2. How can I run smarttests? And if I install gnome on this FreeBSD box, is there any gui utility to use?
3. How will it alert me when a hard drive is failing?
