Hi guys im building my new file server using Windows Server 2008 Data centre edition

however one feature i do like about WHS is that you can have one pool of drives. whilst this could be replicated on a network share using DFS i was wondering if it was at all possible using some form of disk management.

basically creating a form of raid 0 where each drive could be used individually, removed from the array and not break everything.

could this be acheived using drive mounting?

or would i be better off creating my DFS and using that to add files to the drives.

in which case if i created 2 drives that point to \\file\documents with write permissions how does it controll which drive it writes to?


as the title says this is theoretical at the moment i may do some testing on it later.

I'm just wondering how you got and why you're using Data Center Edition?
 
MSDN

using it to try and understand the new features better whilst putting SQL server 08 on it to develop against
