So..., you're saying that if I want to learn to use RAID, I should use
Windows?
I've been doing research on RAID for the past week, and none of the
documentation I've found addresses my issues.
No no, not at all. Have you tried running through a guide? A quick
search will give you something like this
http://www.howtoforge.com/software-raid1-grub-boot-debian-etch Running
through guides is a good start to give you a feel of what's going on and
how to do it, from there you can explore other ideas, ones that maybe
better suited to you and your setup. Also you can see how you can
recover. It's always best to test you actually know how to recoverer
from raid failures rather then just think you know to find out that you
where incorrect.
finding out what hardware and software raid is only needs a wikipedia
search for example, and as to use soft or hardware raid, have a search
at the archives or just debates on the internet. Just remember that if
you use hardware raid and your controller fails you will need to replace
that. Can you use any controller or does it have to the exact same one?
If it needs to be the exact same one and it's built in to the
motherboard, what do you do? These are the questions you need answers
to. Setting up software raid in Linux is very easy and you can do it at
install. Tools like mdstat and mdadm etc will help you out
