[Query] RAID 5 & Using the same RAID array/HDDs from Intel in and AMD system

[Archon42]

Hello. o7

 

Looking for a user experience response from people who may have faced/considered the same thing.

 

I have been using RAID5 across three 2TB drives to hold all my data for a few years now. It has been migrated seamlessly across multiple Intel systems with the only issue being the annoying rebuild problem.

 

I am considering switching to an AMD system, so I am faced with a few queries I am finding no easy answers to.

1) No RAID5 support on X399 or X370; am I mistaken? This is not a deal breaker, as I am willing to switch to RAID10, but this brings me to my next question;

 

2) No RAID compatibility between AMD and Intel systems; is this true? I have no source for this. A friend I asked advice from dropped this bomb.
 

3) Does AMD have the same hassle free quality of RAID compatibility across newer generations that Intel has? Needing to reshuffle data every time I was forced to change systems would be terrible.

 

Any advice, personal experience sharing, etc. would be greatly appreciated. m(_ _)m
