One thing that I've noticed with RAID running on a mobo with IDE or SATA drives is they have a high likelyhood of failing. This and the marginal performance gains is why I tell people if you have to ask RAID isn't for you. It just seems that IDE and SATA drives just aren't as reliable as the old SCSI drives were back in the day.
