Paul-
Thanks for the response. I don't have experience with
the Sil controller chip.
The VIA chips have absolutely no hardware raid functionality.
The VIA chips can be configured to combine individual disks
into an array with striping and/or mirroring or to not
combine the disks at all. They have n

I should revise my explanation here:
I can have 4 disks in DOS (c:, d:, e:, and f:) and then
turn on the RAID1 mode and there is just one disk c: only.
If that is RAID0 then the c: must be 4-formatted first.
That doesn't use any drivers or software except plain DOS.
The 4 disks would actually be RA

The chip doesn't even have a RAID mode. With these chips,
the RAID function has to be provided by software. In
Windows the RAID function is provided by the BIOS + the
Windows driver.

Most "sata raid" controllers aren't raid controllers. They're just norma

Hi Filippo,
I have GA-K8NSPro mobo, onboard sound is AC97 and works OK,LAN OK, USB

nv driver is OK but I don't run games so I haven't pushed it.
