I have a feeling you're talking about BIOS-based Intel MatrixRAID, in which case, **do not use it**. There are bugs in the ata(4) layer which will bite you badly, including data loss even in RAID-1 situations. http://wiki.freebsd.org/JeremyChadwick/ATA_issues_and_troubleshooting Stick with OS-based software RAID. -- | Jeremy Chadwick jdc at parodius.com | | Parodius Networking http://www.parodius.com/ | | UNIX Systems Administrator Mountain View, CA, USA | | Making life hard for others since 1977.
