use the chipset to raid

Posted

(Please dont tell me its a bad Idea. I know its not smart and I keep no valuable info on my SSDs)

Right now I have 2 Samsung 850 Pro SSDs that are in a software Raid 0 (Motherboard RAID) because speed.

Is it worth moving over to a hardware RAID setup? I have a spare Dell JW063 RAID card out of a Poweredge R610 that I could use (I have a battery for it and everything). Would it be worth moving my RAID setup over to it for the sake of reliability or speed? The only thing is if I did I would have to buy cables for it, as the only cables I have are for a R610 SAS backplane.

 

Thanks
