[Plug] soft RAID

["Nick R" <laktar@hotmail.com>]

A friend & I were talking about RAID & he mentioned how much a RAID card 
costs ($1500-$3000 each). That got me thinking. Why hasn't or doesn't 
somebody develop a software version of RAID? You'd need to duplicate the 
kernel, disk drivers, and RAID on at least 2 disks, but aside from that the 
rest could all be normal RAID. That kind of solution would really get people 
interested in Linux. Is there some important issue that I've missed or is it 
just that nobody's done this before?
