Bert,
I think we were all sort of getting at about the same thing here. All I said was that I knew my old Tower was capable of doing so and that I was shopping and seeing such a configuration was possible on both XP and Vista based machines, straight up within themselves.

Yeah I wasn't sure of the nuts and bolts, as I hinted it had more to do with the BIOS and the Motherboard, as I know I was told I would have to change something in my bios if I wanted to set-up a RAID situation down the road. So yes I do have a SATA Drive and card for it. So it seems both sides are saying the same thing in a different manor. One does NOT need a real server sever with server software to have the advantages of RAID. If one has a properly configured PC then it is possible. Yes those of us less knowledgable were a little off on the in's and out's of it, but it is possible on good old XP and Vista PC's whether standing alone or acting as the "server" in a P2P enviornment.

But as always thanks for your clarifications... So it is on the controller board for the harddrives more than anything else.

Hey how's your Jeep and the Power Steering??? Did the "StealerShip" take good care of you??? Now there is something that I know a good deal about... lol. Be well.
