Ok. Let me see if I understand. 
So I could take say 2 drives and make it raid 1. T
hen make another raid with the rest of the drives and I would then newfs -s the raw partition?

I also think 3ware controllers allow to take part of a raid display it 
separately, but still only have one raid. Will check before I do my next 
"large" machine.

Thanks for all the feedback.
