As the firmware just came out, I would not bother just yet. Even some tweaks with the stripe size in the recent past caused me grief on win2k, LINUX and FreeBSD. For now, I would stick to RAID-10. Very fast, still very cheap, and very reliable to date. ---Mike On 7 Feb 2001 21:08:26 -0500, in sentex.lists.freebsd.hardware you wrote: >Just wondering if anyone out there has played around with the new RAID-5= =20 >features of the 3ware cards?
