mount hardware RAID 0

Hello,

I'm using a hardware RAID card.  3ware's 9650SE card to be precise, and I have 2 of these configured in RAID 0.  I've done a little research around the forums and wiki and have only found information on doing software RAID, but not actual hardware RAID.  I do have the FAKE raid guide in front of me, but are there any major differences in the installation the two types?

Re: mount hardware RAID 0

If this card is indeed a real hardware raid controller, it will perform all raid functions itself.

This means to archlinux the entire array should be visible as 1 drive, and you can configure it just as you would any hdd.
