If you *really* want 'IDE RAID', you have to get a 3ware. The promise and highpoint drivers are just silly software hacks.
On the other hand, in-kernel md raid is faster for IDE anyway, and doesn't lock you in to a specific vendor.
With the kernel software RAID, what would I need to do in order to move an existing system over to the RAID? I have 2 identical 120GB HD's. The second is just backup. I have a script that runs every night and rsync's from HD1 to HD2. I want to move to RAID-1 with minimal system downtime as this is a production server.
