Grab your Phillips, it's...
The Latest from The Screwdriver List!
youa re correct in the different ways to set up raid I cant remember the
different ways. But I do know that your board has to be able to support it ,
there is one way to set it up that if you do have a crash that it does save
your data or i should say a mirror of it , but cant remember which one it
is. If you go to your mother board's web site I think that you will find out
your info that you need.
