Also (with some exceptions)
MB raid controllers usually arent true hardware raids and can sometimes can be slower than software raid.

1131825 2010-08-27 11:30:00 You won't find the RAID options in the BIOS, they have their own separate utility.

Looks like SolMiester already posted that....

1131826 2010-08-27 12:57:00 I've had a couple of customers make the mistake of storing important data on a RAID 0 array (onboard) & one of their disks died with no warning.

The only RAID I have ever played with is onboard fakeraid. How does the 100% software RAID work?
