smb sharing problem with RAID0

[mangouste70]

I have a xserve with 3 drives in 10.4.2, one for the OS, and the 2 others for the datas. I create a volume in RAID0 for datas in HFS+ journaled.
When I connect with a PC to a share stored on the RAID, it killed the files automaticaly on the server and I can’t save the file. The problem doesn’t appear if I share a folder in the system disk.

I have the same problem with 2 servers

I’ve not seen this issue, but I would really, really, really not recommend putting your data store on a stripe like that.

I tend to agree with macshome here dude. IMHO, A RAID 5 set with 2 partitions would be a superior solution. Sure, you might “loose” a third of your space, but the redundancy advantages far outweigh space concerns. Hell, you’d probably find a three disk RAID5 set would outperform a 2 disk stripe.
