On my new Mac Pro I have two identical 750GB hard disks. According to the literature I have seen, Leopard makes it trivially easy to 'concatenate' these two drives to make a single 'logical' drive that is their combined size.
It does this without using any RAID tomfoolery as near as I can tell.

I suppose this makes the two drives a single possible point of failure. But the upside is that there is a lot more continuous space available. The alternative, of course is to go buy a single 1.5 TB drive. Just curiious what folks thought about this idea.
