Hello, From what I have hear about the software raid with regards to Linux or windows. However, since you already have to two hard drives a simple Hardward IDE raid Card could be purchased for about $100 and this would be a better way to go. Better for performance and better for reliability. Let us know how you do.

It will be used possibly as a file server, it will most definitely be used also as a mail server and webserver. i would be ok to me to not mirror the drives but this is for my place of employment and im looking to implement a linux server. im not new to linux, just the whole raid situtation. i would like to show my employer how well linux runs in a business environment.
