Hi guys, long time reader, first time poster, here it goes:

I am building a new server, everythings done short of hdds..

with a dell perc 5/i i plan on running 8* 1.5TB drives in raid5, giving me 10.5TB array.

Will windows 2003 server standard 32bit support such an array?

i will ofcourse be using gpt as is supported, but i wasnt sure if this size is possible..

i currently on my old server which also has a dell perc 5/i have 4* 750gb in raid5, and the array size is 2.04TB. i never could be bothered figuring out if that was the proper size or if i was being limited to some magical number..

any help is appreciated.

Welcome

Yes that will work fine, but your OS install must be on a different drive, as 2003 cannot boot from a GPT partition.
 
awesome thanks, yes i run 2 identical drives in raid1 via mobo software raid for system drive..
