t, "Windows is not really an operating system designed for fancy things like RAID" when it comes to pcs I only know what I know from using the darn thing but there was an article in a recent PC Pro, by John Honeyball I think, slating Apple's os, which is after all a flavour of Linux, and praising Windows in respect of RAID support. This was based on trouble he was having with a small RAID setup. Apple's os gave all sorts of inconsistent results. Windows said "oi, you've got a dud disk in yer RAID setup". Or words to that effect. Shock horror.
I understand that RAID support comes from the motherboard and you need to set it up prior to an OS install. So too much trouble as far I'm concerned!! :-)
Maximum performance and maximum capacity are mutually exclusive.
And finally SSDs are not always faster than mechanical disks.
