Hi Guys
I currently use Storage Pools but having had a minor issue that needed googling I've discovered how unstable Storage Pools are and so want to get away from it ASAP!
I've been looking at Drive Bender and DrivePool but they both only seem to offer mirroring protection? To me this is a major waste of space and I'd much rather use Parity checking. Do these products offer this or are there any others that will work with any current MS operating system? (I need to be able to expand the array easily and swap in/out disks without losing data. My disks are also on two different controllers so can't use "onboard" hardware RAID)
Thanks in advance!!!
(need it to be MS op system and have an MSDN subscription so have access to all of them)
