I recently transferred the disks of a RAID 0 set from an nVidia nForce SATA 2 on board controller to a Sil3132 SATA 2 PCIe controller. I had imaged the disks and planned on wiping and restoring the image. I was surprised that the RAID 0 was recognized on the Sil3132 controller. I was further surpised that the files seemed to be available and functioning (they were data files, not system or program files). Just an observation, not an endorsement that it will work. The RAID software generated a warning, so I did do a wipe and restore of the image. YMMV etc. Jim Maki [EMAIL PROTECTED]
