Definitely agreed - you want a hardware controller to handle all the RAID intelligence. And if possible, a hardware controller that does XOR calculations for RAID5 in a dedicated hardware engine - otherwise your machine processor will take a significant hit when writing to the RAID set and performing parity calcs. Unfortunately, that hardware XOR gets pricey.

I need to work on that. http://www.last.fm/user/androidtopp ------------------------------------------------------------------------ androidtopp's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=19681 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=54110 _______________________________________________ discuss mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss
