I refer you to Thoreau: Simplify, simplify.

Good luck. In general you have to shut down a system
to mirror it successfully. Maybe you can figure a way around
this. If you do, clue me in. I haven't so far, but I keep
trying.

>>As usual i have complications

No. Really? Ya sure?

>>My C: holds TA program folders referencing data on the scsi drive

Not a problem in itself. These references are probably the
safest of the lot unless you do something to make NT believe
the SCSI drive letter is different from whatever your program
references think it is.

>>I think of my primary NT install on C: to also include the partition on the scsi

Very dangerous thinking, since it's not true. Get out of
denial and face the reality that NT doesn't give a rat's
ass how you think about it.

>>I know thats not possible, but ...

A glimmer of hope, here, but only a glimmer<G>.

>>thats how I conceptualize these two drives as a unit.

Yeah, the Mac background showing through from the arty
crowd, sounds like <ggg>. Concept transcends earthly
reality, etc. Didn't work on the Mac either, I'll bet.
Nothing like a finite state automaton to bring even the
most arty conceptualizer down to earth sooner or later,
in between renderings, of course <GGG>.

>>As far as mirroring the two as a pair into D: am I looking at another nitemare as far as management goes?

Nope, not a nightmare. A pipe dream. BFM, which is a
technical term meaning roughly "exercise of dark occult arts."
I paraphrase slightly owing to the fact that posts from
this thread may occasionally appear in search engines run
from family web sites.
