I'm using a thecus 2100 with raidframe to do raid 1. A bit slow, but
with 512MB RAM it's acceptable.

Would ccd(4) be any faster? Also, what sort of RAM does it take?
Thanks for your response.

ccd is likely to be slightly faster, but it *will* eat your data. Just
stick with RAIDframe, or hardware RAID, or the upcoming softraid (like
RAIDframe, but newer and shinier; I presume it'll be announced on
undeadly.org one of these days). Worrying about ccd/RAIDframe memory
usage really isn't necessary; both don't use memory on a scale that you
will notice with that amount of memory in the box.

So you are saying that ccd(4) has reliability problems? I actually meant to ask what type of physical memory does the box take. Thanks for your response.
