RAID setup information
ok, i'm getting a little tired of backing up my info on cd's, and i'm starting to look at the possibility of a RAID setup. I'm not sure whether i'd build a seperate server, or incorporate it into my current rig. i'm kinda leaning toward the former though. So I would appreciate if you guys could direct me to some good info on raid setups, the pros and cons of different types, etc. also, what are the advantages of a motherboard w/built in raid, vs. a pci raid card? any help would be great. thanks.
