When you formatted the drive array for NTFS you created the serial 
number. Its has nothing to do with the underlying type or number of drives.

Click "Start"
Click "Run"
In the dialog box labeled "Open:" type cmd , and hit OK

I do not know if filePro looks for c: drive or the executing drive for 
the license manager to check against. If it looks at the C: drive then 
you would just do the following, otherwise change to the D: or whatever 
drive you have the raid5 on. Perhaps Ken or someone else at fpTech can 
comment on how that works

In the open command prompt window type dir /p

At the top you should see something similar to this:
 Volume in drive C has no label.
 Volume Serial Number is ABCD-1234

Your serial number will be different, but it should be formed with 4 
alphanumeric digits a dash and 4 more alphanumerics. As with everything 
from Microsoft there probably is 20 other ways to get that number.
