Re: re-stripiing sata drives

how do restripe ?
Applications>Utilities>Disk Utility. Select your RAID Group and DELETE the RAID Group. You will now see single bare drives. If you can't delete the raid group, put in one drive at a time, and erase or repartition one drive at a time, until they are single drives.

Once all the RAID groups are gone, click on the RAID tab in the disk utility, drag all 10 drives to the center box, and do a RAID 0 stripe with all 10 drives (silly boy - you will regret this).

If you have a G5, and you have a Sonnet E4P, you must have the Power Mac Quad - the only G5 that had PCI-e slots. You can quickly confirm this by seeing if your MAC has 2 ethernet ports on the rear - this is the Mac Quad G5.

If you have problems, let me know.

PS - in case no one told you, you really don't need uncompressed HD -everyone these days is using ProRes422HQ or DVCProHD. (and AVID DNxHD in AVID land).
