Partition drives with SBS 2003
I'm struggling to partition my C: drive bigger then the 8127 that's being offered. The raid-array is huge - 160 GB - but it will simply not let me enter a value larger then 8127 for the C: drive. I've tried every trick in the book...
The server had SBS 2000 on it previously - this is a nuke and re-install from CD...
Re: Partition drives with SBS 2003
Did you delete all the partitions and then create a new c partition using NTFS? Did you press F6 to install your RAID driver?
Re: Partition drives with SBS 2003
Did you setup the RAID into 2 disks or 1? I know some people setup a RAID 1 drive for the OS and a RAID 5 for the files, in which case that's whats causing the limit.

TPM - I guess that's what you meant...
The RAID-5 array had two containers - I had to go into the ADAPTEC boot utility and delete the two containers and create a single container...
That seems to have given me one 200 GB raid array...

Yes exactly, usually that would be used for different RAID levels...
