Raid1

[wpte]

I recieved my WL-500gP V2 today, and before starting i have some questions:

I have a 120Gb USB drive and a 1Tb Usb drive (and a 1Gb CF Microdrive) ready to be used.

Can I:
- Mirror the 120Gb on to the 1 Tb. (raid 1)
- Use the remaining capacity from the 1Tb not mirrored (other partition)
- Do I really need 512Mb swap?
- Can I use the Microdrive for that?
- Use the remaing 512Mb for opt? (Should be enough?)
- Give some compliments to this forum?

you can put it in raid 1

you won't be able to use the remaining capacity... golden rule of raid is: the lowest capacity is used, the rest is unused.

swap file is recommended to keep everything smooth

microdrive and swap don't go together really well, they usually crash after a few hours, or weeks... hdds don't

512mb for opt is ok, depends on what you want to do with it.
