Onboard 'raid' is like using 'mspaint' for professional photo editing. Just
because it's there
doesn't mean you should use it. Most onboard raid is utter garbage and can end
up doing more
harm than good. I would choose software raid over cheap onboard garbage any
day. In fact, software

Bobby,
OK. Then this is just my bad. V4 croaked on 3 of my clients w/3.5sp2.
I just gave up. Not really worth knowing why. With XP I do not go
looking for extra challenges!
I am not good at TS any OS. I found W2K to be bullet-proof. XP is
getting to that status "for me!"
I have bigger problem
I don't understand why you want a raid controller. Are you really
doing anything that is disk i/o bound? or is it to keep from losing
data? Would seem like almost any modern m/b with low end CPU would be
faster and you can just use the built in raid to do a mirrored raid.

FORC5,
On this I can agree. Probably why it takes me 10 minutes to dig through
a support site for a m/b.
I still recall most of the detailed shares here about the "capacitor" issue.
Sadly, it continues to pop up in 'older' machines. I still watch for
"puffed caps"
Don't know whose caps wer
sometimes I think blown caps were a blessing in disguise forcing updating :-[

FORC5/Bryan,
I can not argue strongly against either of your points. Mostly because
on the time, grief, money side I do agree; even before I look at the
SATA RAID controllers choices.
Figured that if I tossed the grand plan out, I'd get some fair dinkum.
I did.
Let me stew on this awhile mo
Bryan,
I will print and parse your suggestions. Afraid I may be even more behind.
The best I can offer are PCI-66 slots on an old Intel STL2 m/b (think
this is ServerWerz chipset/design). Know this may be way past its'
prime, but this beast just will not die.
Yes, I may be trying to beat a ho
Yeah, conclusion: wait until it's time (when you can afford) to replace the box
entirely :)

Most of the readme files that come with updates actually tell you when
fixes have been added to make AnyDVD work with certain DVDs/BDs. But
that still doesn't say where the fault is when things dont' work.

Actually, in amongst the sarcasm is really a desire to know what I'm
doing wrong. It's just too trite to say that every disk that AnyDVD
can't read is absolutely and totally someone else's fault.

Yep, just DVD, although the disks are about 8 gig, so they must be dual
