Thanks for the replies. I want to use Ubuntu, but a look at my dmesg
is somewhat distressing. Most of the errors/warnings I get are
fixable via kernel boot options (iommu=noaperture), but it concerns
me. I guess that's what I get for using non-certfied equipment!

Is anyone using software raid for Ubuntu? How many of you are using
fakeraid controllers?

Just wondering if I made the right decision to use linux software raid
vs the fakeraid controller on my motherboard. Most forums say you're
better off with software raid. Any thoughts?
Also, do you get a lot of errors in your dmesg log in Ubuntu?
I get an amd64_edac error because my board doesn
That's an extremely good point. That alone convinces me!

I've used Linux Software Raid very frequently on RedHat-based distros, but
not on Ubuntu, specifically.
Do you have any specific questions or issues with software RAID?

I agree that you are almost always better off with Linux software RAID,
compared to onboard "fakeraid". Typically, Linux software RAID outperforms
those fakeraid controllers and you have easy software access to the health
of the array and you an initiate rebuilds, change drives and such fairly
