Drive Mirroring/NT Server 4.0/SP6a
Have an NT Server Box w/ two four gig IDE hard drives. When I go to Disk Administrator, it allows me to create/delete partions, format, assign drive letters, but will NOT let me mirror my two drives (after selecting both partions and/or drives using "establish mirror" under Fault Tolerence). Drive zero has 2 partitions: both are 2055mb; Drive 1 has 2 partitions as well but are slightly larger: 2063mb.
Why can't I establish a mirror on the two drives?
HELP!!

Mirroring must be done with NTFS.
To each his/her own.

The target partition must be unformatted and of equal or greater size than the source partition.

Use Partition Magic to "de-NTFSify" your partitions and then establish mirroring.
Human beings, who are almost unique in having the ability to learn from the experience of others, are also remarkable for their apparent disinclination to do so. -Douglas Adams
