I've been investigating the Intel ICH5R SATA controller for awhile and
am having a hard time trying to decide which RAID implementation to go
with. Technically this controller is not a RAID controller, but rather
uses the BIOS for software RAID support. I could bypass the BIOS's
notions of RAID go with ATARAID, but it appears to be deprecated in 2.6
kernels. The other choice is devmapper which works with the BIOS, but it
is far from stable according to the author.
For RAID1 (admittedly on PATA) I'm using mdadm, mirrored at your local
kernel.org in linux/utils/raid/mdadm - in the kernel it needs CONFIG_MD
plus whatever sub-options.
