Okay, here's my noob question for the day:  What's the difference?  The "EasyConfig" option in the
BIOS config (PERC) set me up automatically with a drive array using RAID 5.  I have yanked the bad
drive, so I'm experimenting with 4 drives (I'm also a CPU and some RAM short, so I won't actually
be installing Linux until those holes are filled).

I appreciate that very much!
