No
Yes (two

Online Spares
Further protection against data loss can be achieved by assigning an
online spare (or hot spare) to any con
fi
guration except RAID 0. This hard
drive contains no data and is contained within the same storage sub
system as the other drives in the array. When a hard drive in the array
fails, the controller can then automatically rebuild information that was
originally on the failed drive onto the online spare. This quickly restores the
system to full RAID level fault tolerance protection. However, unless RAID
ADG is being used, which can support two drive failures in an array, in the
unlikely event that a third drive in the array should fail while data is being
rewritten to the spare, the logical drive still fails.
NOTE:
For con
fi
gurable storage servers, storage limitations are based on the
type of SAN the storage server is connected to. See the individual SAN
documentation for limitations of Windows Storage Server 2003.
