RAID 1 and RAID 0, possible with this mobo?

[hedpe]

Hey all,

I would like to perform a raid 0 and raid 1 together... I think this is a RAID01 ?

Basically, I would have 4 hard disks, the first two would be in a RAID0 which would do striping, and then the other two disks mirror those two disks.

So I am looking at getting this mobo:

it says: SATA RAID 0/1/0+1/5 Matrix RAID

Does anyone know if that means what I want to accomplish is possible with this motherboard?

Thanks!
George

It is called either RAID10 or 0+1. The difference is whether the "top" layer is striping or mirroring. And yes, the ICH8r can do RAID-10 with up to 4 drives:
