Hello,

I've installed the 3ware card ok and already ran out of space on it (3x
250Gb in Raid 5). About to try the OCE thing which I will use growfs(8)
for.

I may even try it on some spare 80gb satas I have lying around to see if
it works prior to trashing hundreds ogf gigs of data.

Cheers
Richard
