Hi,
Can someone please assist met with some software RAID 1+0 setup instructions? I have searched the web, but couldn't find any. I found a lot of RAID 10 setup instructions, but it doesn't help me.
Hi,
what is your purpose with this Level? I'm asking because I had done some raid level tests some time ago with hardware raid controllers/systems from 3ware, sun and iscsi-raidsystems and some softwareraid setups.
I haven't seen significant performance differences using different levels. (I'm not comparing the controllers.)

With the limited resources (motherboard supports 2x SATA & 4x IDE - but I don't want to use more than 2 IDE HDD's), and small form factor chassis, I would rather sacrifice less space (460GB on 4x 250GB HDD's) and run RAID 10 for higher reliability & speed, then run RAID 5 and have higher risk of complete data loss.
RAID 10 can suffer 2 drive failures, while RAID 5 only one.
