In terms of recovering data after a crash I think software raid is safer, or at least easier to recover. The advantage being that the data storage on a software RAID1 disk looks like any other non-raid disk. Depending on the hardware RAID controller you may not be able to read the data on your disk without the hardware raid controller. Geoff - I think I think, therefore I possibly am -
