Re: NT striping dangerous with Oracle 7 or 8?

NT striping is always dangerous. Try the Raid striping at the hardware level. Also make sure that you have battery backups on the raid controllers.

If power is lost there are many points of failure even if make sure that you have battery backups. Make sure you have a good backup strategy implemented.
