Hey all...I purchased 2 BARRACUDA 120.0GB 7200RPM 8MB CACHE SATA for my setup....I currently have an ASUS 700 Mhz mobo (old yes - for now), and I'm not sure if this one supports RAID, but I would also like to know how to set it up into a RAID Array...can anyone direct me on how to do a step-by-step? Thanks all!!!

If your motherboard is "that" old, chances are it doesn't support SATA drives. As for creating the array, it's really very intuative (but i would pressume is dependant on the manufacturer. All I did was follow the on-screen prompts during boot  |

Thanks Marc! Well I thought it would be nice to have the RAID in my current mobo (but it doesnt support it), but in reference to my previous post regarding the NEW Asus mobo I am planning to pick up, it looks like this would be an ideal setup....Again, Ithankyou!

You reckon this would be faster than the onboard RAID of his potential new mobo?

no, it'd be slower because the PCI bus is slower than the SATA bus
