Sit back and just think a minute: |

You have a fullfledged hardware raid. You set it up to be a RAID5 |
| 11 |
array. What do you expect to see? |
| 12 |
|
| 13 |
I would expect to see one HDD, since the Hardware RAID takes care of |
| 14 |
all the little, pesky things you need to setup a RAID. |
| 15 |
|
| 16 |
So I state there there is absolutely no problem anywhere. |

Go ahead and do everything you like with that sda it your raid. |

BTW: Some investigation should have revealed that the capacity of sda |
| 21 |
is larger than that from one single disk... |
