Aug 3, 2012 at 23:26 | comment | added | Pavel P | Backups isn't an option. I move around and modify gigs of data and I really want to be back and running in no time if a drive fails. Basically, with intel raid I'll need to get same mobo if it fails to recover the data. Aren't there some sort of compatibility between different raid manufacturers? | |
Aug 3, 2012 at 21:07 | comment | added | Hennes | @Dave M is correct that RAID is no substitute for backups (e.g. consider theft of the desktop, or fire, ...). As for Intel fake RAID: You need the same (type) of motherboard. Assume that you can no longer access the data when the motherboard fails. If you do not make regular backups, consider software RAID (via drivers, not via Intel fake RAID) or hardware RAID. (The latter is better, often faster and a problem if your RAID card dies). | |
