CERC SATA 2S
The CERC SATA 2S RAID controller is a combination BIOS and driver-based software RAID solution, which uses the system motherboard's SATA controllers. It is not a hardware RAID solution such as the aacraid and megaraid controllers listed above.
Systems with this controller include the PowerEdge 800, SC1425, and 420SC.

Under Windows and Netware, there are special device drivers which operate in conjunction with the system BIOS to present the system SATA disks as a RAID volume.

Under Linux, the disks should be treated as two independent disks, which use the standard Linux "MD" software RAID layer for RAID 0 or 1 operation (if you so desire). System Documentation on support.dell.com describe how to configure the system BIOS to either disable the RAID mode, or to set up the disks as two independent RAID volumes (effectively disabling the BIOS software RAID feature).

Hvis du skal køre linux og raid, så bliver det softraid (som du selv skriver) - og dermed kan du "bare" konfigurere det under installationen - og det er IKKE det samme som hardware baseret raid.

Oki.. Surt.
Må forsøge mig med softraid.
Kan du evt. svare på: http://www.eksperten.dk/spm/624753
Har forsøgt mig med SUSE.
