The advantage of FakeRAID is that you get to depend on a Windows-only driver that only works with your motherboard and will prevent the RAID working if the motherboard files and you try to connect the drives to a different system. For some reason,this gives Windows users a warm, fuzzy feeling. -- Neil Bothwick Bumper Sticker: If you can read this, you are in phaser range.
