hi ya
if you didnt buy it yet... first search google for
"high point" and hpt372
if you're only using 2 disks... dont bother....with hw raid
if you're using 4 disks... use sw raid5 ... on separate ide cables
for list of hardware raid stuff
http://www.linux-ide.org/chipsets.html
( note that nobody really is hardware raid )
- true test... setup your raid1 (mirroring) system...
- pull a disk out ...and see if it still works
at least raid1...
- testing raid 0 (striping) .. harder to test ...
write a 2GB file to a single disk...
read it back ...
write the same 2GB file to raid0 disks...
read it back...
- now try the same tests with "software raid"
