Hi Ed,
Merry X'mas
As recommended I browsed following site prior to placing a purchasing order
for RAID card :
http://direct.mwave.com/mwave/doc/169770.html and
http://www.promise.com/Products/Default.htm
I am a little bid lost. Promise ULTRA100 TX2 ATA/100 PCI offered
by mwave.com at
Promise FastTrak100 TX4 (with 4 channels) and Promise FastTrak100 TX2
(with
2 channels) are true hardware RAID card for RAID 0, 1 and 0+1.
My understanding from your advice, if correct, is with the application of
Linux software RAID, ULTRA100 TX2 ATA/100 PCI can achieve equivalent
Hi Ed,
Thanks for your response

The card I used was a the TX2 without RAID for the $28 price. I used Linux
software mirroring and hdparm reported speeds of 30MB/sec using my 2 IBM
40GB ATA100 40GB drives. This was on a Duron 800 processor with 512MB
