This is pretty much what I had assumed, the issue was merely with the aac
driver reporting SCSI 2.

Okay I'm attempting to formulate a response of the info I've seen.

AAC Driver:
sd0: 17767890 sectors
sd1: 71087625 sectors

FDisk:
sd0: 16434432 sectors
sd1: 16434432 sectors

Disklabel:
sd0: 17767890 sectors
sd1: 71087625 sectors

MS-Dos FDisk (Okay, not the most reliable source):
sd0: Only OpenBSD partition @ 92% usage. (16434432 / 17767890 = 92%)
sd1: 100% usage.

Now upon taking into consideration only the sector information as
presented in disklabel, yes it is apparent that it is utilizing the full
8625MB of the Mirrored Container.

So I'll just have to take that as being valid, but IMHO fdisk should
present the same information as the other (non-MS) utilities.

Again thanks for the help, you've proved an invaluable resource.

Ciao,
