Why should the OS be concerned about RAID at all? It works best as a hardware solution. Software is nice for low-end systems without too much disk-io. At least I can make threads access multiple disks concurrently on software-raid. I can only access one disk at a time on IDE (hence the oxymoron remark). Regards Peter Larsen who runs software raid on several development boxes. -- Psyche-list mailing list Psyche-list@redhat.com https://listman.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/psyche-list
