Quick question about SBUU; I'm rebuilding an older PE1800 (6 x SATA) and using Windows 2008 x64 as my base OS. I initially created a RAID-10 32GB partition on 4 drives in SBUU for Virtual Disk 0 thinking that I could assign the rest of the space from Windows but now that's all the system sees. I've rerun the install several times this time trying to allocate the entire space of the 4 drives as Virtual Disk 0 with subsequent allocation within Windows, clicked yes to overwriting the Virtual Disk partition, yet when the server reboots to do the OS install, I'm still only seeing 32GB.
Do you find this valuable?
