I've read the last few months of posts, and I'm still confused about
something.
If chipsets such as the Promise PDC20265 and Highpoint HPT372 are just
extra IDE controllers, is the *only* reason for the special linux
support to be able to share arrays with windows?
And the $64,000 question (or maybe the $50 question :-) If I'm not
going to run windows on a machine, is there any reason to get a
motherboard with a "RAID" controller? The only reason I can think of
is the extra IDE channels; if I do get a RAID board for this reason,
is there any reason not to use /dev/mdX?
