- kolobcreek, on 10/12/2007, -0/+8LVM Rocks. Very fast RAID0. Live disk snapshots too. What more could you want.

- SuperSloth, on 10/12/2007, -0/+6Hardware RAID?
- mlw4428, on 10/12/2007, -1/+7Also on desktops, laptops, phones, pdas, gaming consoles, and hopefully one day women (imagine being able to turn off the PMS daemon...)

- michaelg, on 10/12/2007, -0/+3I needed this a month ago when I got 2x320GB drives to add to my home server. I found another website and picked up on LVM pretty quickly. Very very nice if you want to have a lot of flexibility and be able to span across multiple drives. I actually am running it on my desktop now too because of how it is very dynamic and flexible if I need to resize disks. I love how LVM doesn't care which order you rearrange your drives in and that it figures it out automatically.

- Robstah, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2I run LVM on my MythTV box with 2 78GB SCSI drives and most of an 80GB IDE drive. Works great. It's very easy to toss another drive onto the end of the LVM raid as well.

- piiscool, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2Even if it is still a list of instructions it's still a pretty good run-through of what you can do with LVM. But readers should beware, the most important part of running a RAID array is being able to recover from a crash and that if you're LVMing a bunch of disks together if you lose one disk, you lose it all, unless it's RAIDed.
It's howtos like this that makes the linux community as great as it is. The whole idea is if you don't like it you can go and make your own (better) version and this still true for howtos. The freedom is in choice, not price. - chokeyou, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1This may not have been what you were looking for, but I would encourage you to poke through Falko's other stuff. He really is one of the best out there.
- MrSarcasm, on 10/12/2007, -2/+3On servers, yes.
- cgitz, on 10/12/2007, -1/+1This is not a beginners guide - it is a series of instructions with no explanation or objective. I was hoping for some insight, descriptions of the tools or anything that would be useful to a beginner. Instead of providing an article worth reading, the author fires off a laundry list of steps.
- ellion, on 10/12/2007, -3/+3I cant believe I actually just laughed about that :D
- ragipy, on 10/12/2007, -10/+6Logical volume management is very important, too high a volume can permanently damage your ears. (I never RTFA)
