Just now, I can grab: http://www.mysql.com/Downloads/MySQL-3.22/mysql-3.22.32.tar.gz And, in that tarball, on line 190 of acconfig.h: /* Use MySQL RAID */ #undef USE_RAID And there is a include/raid.h. And, Docs/mysqld_error.txt has this message defined: #define ER_NO_RAID_COMPILED 1174 "This version of MySQL is not compiled with RAID support", There is no 'RAID' attribute to the 'CREATE TABLE' syntax in the supplied docs. My question was: What is the state of that code? I _surmise_ that it's unused code, as it was not fully implemented at this point. I was uncertain if it was code that specific to the yet-to-be-introcuded RIAD attributes to a table, or if it just messed with the layout of files on disk to allow for better performance in general on RAID arrays. I merely wanted verification.

Re: 'USE_RAID' in mysql-3.22.32?
In the create table documenttation, it explains the USE_RAID, and a few other options pertaining to it.
