I tried for a while then gave up and just went with gmirror as some people even suggested that it'd probably behave better. Remember that having a raid is only a small part of the answer. Don't forget monitoring, backups and testing of those backups. A RAID won't take you far if a fire happens or any other physical accident. 2009/5/20 Ivan Voras : > hi, > > Is the product described at: > > http://www.highpoint-tech.com/USA/rr1520.htm > > a "real" (not soft-) RAID?

They are not hardware raid cards, they do not have dedicated processors on them. However, they work just fine, and you can set the raid up in the card's bios, and freebsd will recognize the disk as a single unit. However, I don't bother, I use gmirror, it's all about the same at that point. I don't remember off the top of my head which driver it uses, but I didn't need to add anything. -Gary Ivan Voras wrote: > hi, > > Is the product described at: > > http://www.highpoint-tech.com/USA/rr1520.htm > > a "real" (not soft-) RAID?

However the reason to use gmirror mainly seems to be reliability. As these cards might not be that well used they've simple got less mature drivers than the standard (S)ATA stack. 2009/5/21 Dean Hamstead : > its worth benchmarking for yourself and seeing if your 64bit powerhouse c= an > outperform the raid cpu. > > most of the time you will see soft raid doign better > > Dean > > Gary D.

Unfortunately, the upgrade left me without X server - neither the Openchrome nor the Vesa drivers start properly. I thought of installing the Via graphics driver but the port is marked as IGNORE. Did anyone have luck with a similar board?
