I am sick and tired of reviewers who send 16 pages of an article on A RAID controller talking about performance and not once testing the controllers claim to Fault Tolerance. In case the reviewer missed it, RAID stand for REDUNDANT array of inexpensive disks, so the majority of people using these kind of controllers will be doing so for the fault tolerance aspect. How about dedicating a couple pages to single disk failure and multi disk failures and recoveries instead of almost meaningless performance graphs ?Working with these controllers daily, I know alot of the redundacy aspect are very overrated.

More of a question than a comment. I am a newbie to RAID.

Is there any advantage to using Harware RAID for RAID 0? There are not many calculations involved for RAID 0 right?

So would software RAID (WinXP) and built in RAID chips on my motherboard be comparable in performance to Hardware RAID in RAID 0 config only?

I love your site, just came across it.
