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.
Should I keep trying or just switch to Linux raid?



It's only really worth while if you are using the promise driver to do raid /w windows. Other wise using ataraid isn't in your best interest currently.
