I have a 2 drives on an hp netraid controller in raid0 for the os(fedora) and then i have 4 drives in raid 5 for data. (its a fileserver) the drives are formatted in ntfs. how do i go about mounting the raid 5 array and then sharing it? Fedora see the two logical drives as sda and sda, respectively.
 
Seeing 2 drives as sda and sda is sort of impossible, I hope you mean sda and sdb.

And as for NTFS, I wouldn't suggest it. NTFS read support isn't too bad, but write support is not there at all. You could try CaptiveNTFS which uses the Win32 NTFS driver for full access, but I wouldn't trust it for anything important.
 
No Linux distro can safely write to NTFS unless they're using CaptiveNTFS and like I said, I still wouldn't trust that since it's a wrapper around a Win32 driver.

And last I checked Fedora didn't even ship with the GPL'd read-only NTFS driver, let alone the legally ambiguous CaptiveNTFS one.
