Not that long ago, we've had a long, extensive tutorial on GParted, a powerful and friendly partitioning software that allows you to configure your drives and partitions for installations of multiple operating systems. The tutorial helped us learn the Linux vernacular and we mastered the basic configurations, like creating, resizing, moving, and deleting of partitions, and even some more advanced stuff. In all cases, we worked with individual partitions. We did not dabble in RAID.
