I also prefer software raid as you can get problem messages without much setup. AFAIK in case of hardware raid you also need to ensure that the software for raid messages / monitoring is available in your O/S. Not many vendors come out with Linux support and you get messages only in BIOS log. -- Regards, Sudev Barar ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: Splunk Inc.
