FAQ: HOWTO: Convert a dynamic disk back to a basic disk without data loss <br><br>I think we may need to re-org stuff to make a HOWTO section or something.

Windows 2003 server boots just fine from dynamic disks, but I think you should show us a screenshot of your Disk Managament MMC so we can be sure you're not accidentally spanning the volume.

Regardless of the disk type--basic or dynamic--you can use any file system you want, including FAT or NTFS. However, you can make volume changes to dynamic disks without having to reboot the system.
