Hi All,
Intel's C224 chipset supports Intel's Rapid Storage
Technology Enterprise (RSTe). He "e" is for "Enterprise".
It can be used for RAID 0, 1, 10.
Anyone have any experience with this? Good, bad,
indifferent?
This is what the Linux folks call "fake RAID". It is not a hardware
RAID controller; it is just an on-disk RAID format that the BIOS can
understand. (So, for example, a RAID 1 boot disk pair can lose either
drive and the BIOS can still boot from it.)
You manage these gadgets with mdadm, just like any software RAID. See
http://www.intel.com/support/chipsets/rste/sb/CS-033622.htm for
details.
It works fine if what you want is a redundant boot drive done simply.

Hi Pat,
Thank you!
Would it be faster, slower, or about the same as a dedicated
LSI (or similar) controller when used in a high end workstation?
