WickedMetalHead posted:Am i right in my assumption that hardware Raid 5 on a Debian box is going to be "better" then Software? And by better would it just be faster? more robust? Some other way? And how much better would it be? Enough to justify the price of a Hardware raid card? One big advantage of software raid is that once your hardware changes/dies you can still access the array easily. This is usually not the case with hardware cards as each tends to do things in its own way. On top of that a lot of consumer level "RAID" cards actually do a lot of work using the cpu so be careful. Of course if you buy an expensive server raid card with gobs of cache etc it shouldn't be an issue.
