</blockquote></div><br>Ok. Let me start with - I don't get LVM + RAID. The idea of being able to throw differently sized disks in one side and having a failure resistant dynamically extendable disk solution come-out the other is great, but I don't get LVM + RAID. Specifically, how it works. Why both? Also, I love the idea of not being constained by the number of slots in a box, so the extent to which that can be abstracted across a protocol like iSCSI or AoE or eSATA would be great - especially since performance is only marginally important to me. So, how would.does something like this work/get built?<br>
