I hope this is the correct area to post this . . .

Anyway, I was wondering where the RAID Drive icon is located in Leopard, as it is showing up with the standard HDD icon for me.

I know this has no importance other that visual appeal, but I care for some reason.

Thank in advance.

It's not in an icon format, and it's not hi-res, but if you open it in Preview, copy it, then paste like a normal icon, it should work.

Just made this one.
Resolution is far from perfect, but better.
If more HDDs are required, I can make them.

Are you making the icons in Photoshop? If so, where are you getting the source image for the drive? I have a 4 drive RAID and just wanted to see if I could make an icon with 4 drives. Not sure if it would work or not (might look wonky with 4).
 
Yes, I'm doing it with Photoshop and then DropDMG, as I don't know any other way to create these icns-files.
The source image is the normal internal disk HDD icon (Snow Leopard).

as this is the only official one, I guess the self-made ones aren't that bad:

@Mod: is there any copyright I am infringing??
