Then a HW Raid is preferable. Why? This is a Linux that more or less only does RAID and nothing else and the transfer speeds it reaches are really nice.

Because I do not know how to successfully restore a broken software array.
Its just as easy as restoring a hardware array. RTFM helps. I bet you RTFM on the hardware raid, so why is it a problem for software raid? I've done it on a couple of occasions both with software raid 5 and software mirroring. In fact, software raid is so effective, I frequently use fake raid boards and just jumper them to act as simple controllers, taking advantage of the multitude of ports and killing off their internal raid controller. -- _____________________________________ ---This space for rent--- -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
