I have vague memories of playing with it, but can't give very specific details. From googling (and from my memories), it's indeed software raid, and if you have no specific reasons to use their driver, don't. Simply use linux's software raid (md) if you want raid. This, of course, assuming you _can_ see the disks themselves (not through raid). -- Didi
