Intel ICH5R RAID With S-ATA Drives And RAID Migration

Published by

I got this the other day from Tech Seekers.net and forgot to post it! So here we go: Along with the introduction of the Intel 875P and the imminent introduction of the 865 chipset, a new Southbridge was also introduced. Namely the ICH5.

The ICH5 comes in two flavours, one with Intel RAID 0 support and one without. The intel platform also supports RAID Migration, which we look at in detail also. While this is an article about RAID-0 in the ICH5R I will just give a quick rundown on RAID and what it is.
