I have 2, 200GB Maxtor HD's (XP Pro, yada, ") and wanna eventually
have 5.
I wuz thinkin' about a RAID but had some reservations.
I'm a-skeered that if I make one I'll lose all the data I got on the 2
now.
Is that true? Must I lost everything in order to make a RAID array?
And I wuz gonna make one of them kinda RAID's that made fer one HUGE
HD rather than redundant HD's but I hear that if one craps then I lose
everything.

What to do?
