I just read that the on the motherboard Promise ata-raid controller uses a lot of cpu time. The Linux software raid option is much more efficient.
Since Linux can do the raid functions in software what is the point of using the ata-raid?
I have been having a lot of trouble getting by asus a7n266 to work.
