Hardware RAID on Opensuse -- HELP!

[solphonic]

Yeah I agree with the above. Good idea to put windows on a separate single drive and do a software RAID with openSUSE on another 2. Just make sure your windows drive is fairly large for all your video editing needs. As ken_yap stated, read/write ntfs access is easy under linux, whereas M$ refuses to acknowledge that it might be possible for a different filesystem other than fat32 or ntfs to exist and therefore wouldn't recognise your OpenSUSE partitions =)

Ok, thanks for all the help guys. I'll just get another 500gb drive (sigh... there goes the budget) and do windows on it. Cheers!
