Really? AFAIK a fake RAID is considered a RAID controller that doesn't
have its own CPU and RAM, but uses resources of the main system.
Software RAID is when the OS itself performs the RAID functions
regardless if there is a RAID controller or not. As long as you have
(ideally) two identical drives,
Not so David. The overall size of the HD is not a part of the raid-1
process. You need any size HD that has enough space for all the
partitions 8-)
you can create a software RAID on any system.
