Hi John, thank you very much for information. Alltought i am not aware why
is better use software raid than raid solution provided by that board. Or it
is so that its also software raid imitation that uses own software
(somewhere in raid bios) to do the same as linux software raid can provide?
What about the speed , does it affects somehow?

Thanks,

David Hlacik
