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

I could only find one SATA disk in Linux and never see
the PATA whether RAID was turned on or off because of the
sata_promise driver for kernel 2.6.10. I could not write
to the RAID in Linux without errors. The new 2.6.11 kernel
is supposed to make the PATA visible under Linux.

This is just plain wrong. I suggest you go and read some good
documentation on the properties of different RAID formats. Generally
speaking RAID0 doubles throughput for large writes as data is striped
across both volumes, and has seek times the same as a single drive. RAID1

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.
There was an issue with two of the SATA inputs not being detected by the
