I know, there is a linux-raid-ML ;-) |

I unsubscribed there a few months ago. |

What I would like to discuss and ask here: |
| 5 |
|
| 6 |
Is it problematic to have both 512-byte- and 4k-sector-drives in one |
| 7 |
RAID array? |
| 8 |
|
| 9 |
I have that case at a customer where the partition map was copied over |
| 10 |
(sfdisk -d) from an old to a new drive. |
| 11 |
|
| 12 |
Now we have misaligned raid member drive with 4k and the older member |
| 13 |
with 512bytes. |
| 14 |
|
| 15 |
Additional question here: which version to use? |
| 16 |
0.90 for booting, right? As far as I understand the manpage the "-e" |
| 17 |
switch does not have much to do with aligning or so. |

I plan to add another new 4k drive to the RAID1 array after partitioning |
| 22 |
it correctly aligned. Then let it sync, remove other disk ... partition |
| 23 |
correctly ... etc etc |
