Hi Erik,

I wasn't planning on using the 3Ware hardware RAID as I read that software RAID 
would be the way to go, I just have the cards for the fact I can plug 8 drives 
into each. I can't return, I got them used from a guy who did not know what 
they were used for for $50 each. 

Do I have to do anything special to NOT use the 3ware hardware functionality?
