Thanks for the hint.

so sda is

[   21.415649] sd 3:0:0:0: [sda] Attached SCSI removable disk

and sdb is hardware raid with 2 72G disk in mirror.

so I guess I *do* have both disks available.

anyone know of a tool that can talk to the hardware raid controller
LSISAS1064 to query the disk status ?
