hey all!
I have been reading everyone's admonishments in the Raid Maintenance thread about not runniing Raid0, and I'm starting to listen. I currently have a 1.6TB raid made in the burly box and controlled by a Sonnet Tempo card. I made the RAID with disk utility, which only allows for Raid 0 and 1. does anyone know if there is a way to use this Raid setup but create a Raid 5 setup? thanks all! greg
Raid 5 is something that needs to be built into the box...the Raid case. It is a hardware RAID solution. That setup isn't capable of Raid 5.

I sell a 4 disk SATA RAID solution that can be firmware set to RAID's 0-1-5-10 or 50.

You can buy RAID controller cards to go in your PCIe or PCIx slots depending on the kind of Mac you have that do RAID 5. They are in the $200 to $300 range. Here is one reviewed on the AMUG site.
