My environemtn: Redhat 9 server in IBM x205,two IDE hard disk, one CD-RW, one CD-ROM.
I know SCSI is faster than IDE, SCSI controller can connect more than 4 hard disk. SCSI hard disk is much expensive than IDE hrad disk. IDE can only have 4 hard disk, but much cheaper. RAID 5 can be either software or hardware.
I want to build a RAID 5 for storage purpose on this x205. SCSI is expensive, I want to know if I can use IDE to build a RAID5, how to do? Thanks!
