Hi,
I have an asus a7n8x-xe mobo and I thought to buy two SATA hard drives
to set them up to work in RAID 0. Is RAID supported for this chipset
because I don't want to buy the hard drives in vain? If yes, could
someone point me a howto because I never had any experience with RAID.
Thanks.
The nForce is a fakeraid, i.e. it isn't actually RAID but software raid
with a BIOS GUI thrown on. So if you're thinking of hardware RAID, no
you can't do it. You can easily do Linux software raid over you two
drives, which is what I use on my VIA/SiliconImage chipset combination
with 4 drives. Read the Software RAID HOWTO for more info:
