Subject: RE: [PLUG] Hi
Unfortunately I have the ABIT BP6 Dual Celeron w/o the RAID for this
machine
:(
True, SCSI might be a better alternative but from what I have been told,
it
is not much better (or even worse) for sequential access and I don't
plan to
use the drive for anything other than mp3s and video.. Basically I would
like the RAID for reliability so when my drive crashes after my cat
shorts
out something in my computer I have a chance of not loosing all my mp3s
and
whatnot.

Hello:
If you chose IDE Raid, you probably won't need a card. Most
motherboards are shipping with IDE RAID built in. Most of them are
around $100-$180 depending on the board.

Any particular reason you're avoiding SCSI?
I mean, if part of the point is to reduce MTF...
(That is to say, "I haven't a clue which IDE RAID cards would work
well, as I've only ever used SCSI for RAID.")
