I've got four 750GB drives in addition to the installed system drive. I'd like to aggregate them and split them into a few volumes. My first inclination would be to raid them and drop lvm on top. I know lvm well enough, but I don't remember md that well.
Since I don't recall md well, and this isn't urgent, I figure I can look at the options. The obvious ones appear tobe mdraid, dmraid and btrfs. I'm not sure I'm interested in btrfs until it's got a fsck that will repair errors, but I'm looking forward to it once it's ready. Any options I missed? What are the advantages and disadvantages? ZZ
