I'm using a Supermicro X9SRE-3F motherboard with the latest BIOS and 2x 4TB drives connected to the on-board SATA controller.
If I set the BIOS to RAID and create a RAID 1 array, the array shows up in the BIOS as 3.6TB.
I know Linux has great capabilities over the years of using it but I can't seem to find an exact name or setup for this scenario. I want to do Matrix RAID (that is not the correct general name but it was as close as I got) on two HDD. I want to put the OS in RAID 1 for redundancy and then have another partition or folder as RAID 0 for TV recordings both on two HDD.
Got a RAID question. My PC has 2 identical 500gb HDs. My BIOS setup does not show anything related to RAID, I've checked every entry, every option, yet the 9.10 installer "sees" RAID.
So, is my hardware physically set up as RAID? How can I check? I'd like to have it as 2 separate drives, and screw RAID. What do I do?
Apologies if this has already been covered; if it has I couldn't find it. First and foremost, this question does NOT pertain to a dual-boot system. I wish to set up a F16 system which uses GPT partitioning and needs a bios boot partition. I have two identical HDD's that will be set up as RAID 1 using software RAID.
I had a Windows 7 RC/openSUSE 11.1 dual-boot on this computer running on RAID 1.
When I installed Windows 7 final, somehow it screwed up my RAID 1. I fought with it for a while, but decided to wipe the logical drive, and then go into BIOS and disable RAID. I reinstalled Windows 7 on the HDD, but I have no RAID now.
I am working on decommissioning an old server for a client. The server is an older Dell PowerEdge 1600sc with four SCSI drives. Two are stand-alone, and the other two are in RAIDx (not sure the actual RAID id). It does not have an integrated RAID controller (nothing under integrated devices in the BIOS related to RAID), the client has a PowerEdge Expandable RAID controller PCI card for that.
I cannot install 11.3 on a machine with an intel raid controller
I have tried with raid 1 using the card and then setting the
disks to individual raid 0 and letting suse raid them. With
the card doing it the machines crashes as soon as it tries
to boot the first time, with suse doing the raid I just get 'GRUB'

Hi,I have a RAID controller (SATA x4 RAID DELOCK 70154) and I have the following problem.The RAID configuration (just as BIOS) I have set up with two identical drives RAID 1... [by puciol86]
Hi all,
Does anyone know if Fedora 12 recognises a RAID array on the ICH9R raid chipset? In the past I've found that most on board raid chipsets are software or bios assisted software based and typically linux can only see thier component drives, not the array itself.
