Appreciate your response Kent,
The second drive has no trouble becoming "dynamic",
The first drive (where MBR etc are located), fail to boot after I convert it
to "dynamic".
How can the the drive be "dynamic" w/o first installing the OS.
BTW - (Hardware raid is not in the pocketbook for the rest of the fiscal
year.)
Thanks,
