Pro is completely dead when the Windows software goes:

I have an issue I hope someone can help me with, or at least an idea
for a better solution. I have a new XServe with Intel Mac OS X 10.4.9.
With it I have an XRAID, split into two partitions, identical sizes. I
created two volumes in OS X, Raid_Main and Raid_Backup. I want
