I'm not sure about that. If it's simple mirroring then I'd expect it to be ok with ataraid, but don't quote me on it. Perhaps someone with HPT experience could help... On that topic: Does anyone know what are the differences between the data that gets written to disk for ataraid, hpt, promise, and linux md? Eg, is a mirror writing the same data regardless of driver? How about a stripe?
