Raid-1 is mirroring two disks (if I haven't messed up completely here :p). Does that mean that I could take one disk out and put it into another machine and it would work like a normal disk? Or does it still only work in the raid? I can understand that a Raid-0 of course only works as a whole. But with mirroring I am not so sure how it works...
Of course putting the mirrored disk back in the raid afterwards would be a bad idea, but just taking it out... how would that work? Does raid store any special data on a drive that is needed? or does the raid controller handle everything like that and the harddrives are just used like normal?
