If I understand it correctly, each IDE channel on a motherboard has a
separate controller. I've had a rash of drive failures recently and hope
use two drives in a RAID1 configuration would help the recovery process. The
alternative is to install a 2nd drive as a backup.

I just found it and looked it over. Is RAID now included in the 2.4 kernel
