Somebody suggests possibly an issue with 6 drives being spread over 2 different controllers. I couldn't help wonder if it's just a Windows driver thing.
Surely. A HDD only knows about sectors, reads and writes.... it knows nothing about RAID. RAID is a controller thing.
In fact, if I use an ARCO RAID1 device (my favorite raid solution), it masks two drives as a single one while doing RAID1 at the hardware level, the OS and software side think it's 'talking to' a single drive.
