So this brings up the question, couldn't find this in the archives. How much faster is a ATA-HW RAID vs. a ATA-SW RAID? With RAID 0? RAID 5? Why go SW RAID over HD?

The following are HARDWARE-BASED IDE raid cards that are known to work well: * Escalade Series (5000-7000) * Adaptec 2400a (i2o based) * Promise Supertrack The Fasttrack and highpoints are NOT hardware-based raids. They use the drivers for their intelligence. - Stu
