[CentOS] software raid

[Dave]

Hello,
    My thanks to everyone for many helpful replies on this topic. Right now 
this box will be ide raid1 mirroring, i've got two drives in it, although at 
some point probably within the next six months or so i'm going to expand 
with another drive.
    I do not have experience with hardware raid cards, although i've heard 
plenty of good things about them, financially they're just not in my budget 
and i've implemented software raid1 on other Unix systems before, and that 
has saved me much hard times, in fact one box is currently running off the 
slave drive, the master drive died and it's waiting for me to replace it, so 
i quite like software raid and wanted to implement it on this new CentOS 
box.
Thanks again.
Dave.
