The first option Jeff suggested will work except you will have to be
very careful with your
backup and stuff since this method is spanning the volume.  The
disadvantage of using it
is that if either one of your harddisk crashes, then you will not be
able to access your data 
on that spanned volume, SYS in your case.

I don't know how to solve the problem with "changing trustee directory
assignment" for each
user b'cos there is no such thing as Directory Map Object like in
Netware 4.x  so it looks 
like you gotta either span the volume of do it the hard way.

Hope this helps.
