Please don't send HTML-ized e-mail to the list!) And about your question... from personal experience, the only two forms = of RAID that you can use with two drives, no matter which OS, are RAID 0 = and RAID 1. =20 RAID 0 is pure striping across both drives, which offers no redundancy = but may offer better throughput. RAID 1 is pure mirroring, which offers = the best redundancy but may cause a severe penalty on disk subsystem = performance. --- Andy -----Original Message----- From: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG = [mailto:owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG]On Behalf Of Steve Blanzy Sent: Saturday, May 05, 2001 12:19 PM To: freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: Raid What RAID if any does free BSD support in a dual SCSI hard drive = configuration?
