Hi,
I thought to install Debian OS on a RAID 1 system. Now I read that I can install the OS making the RAID directly on the motherboard (hardware RAID I think) or during the installing process (software RAID I think), but I have a few questions...
1) What happen if a disk will fail? I think that I can’t boot more so how can I change the failed drive and rebuild it?
2) Is better to build the RAID directly on the motherboard or during the OS installing process?
Soon I will change my motherboard to a new one. So
3) Can I reuse the same RAID array on the new motherboard if I set up it on the older one (hardware RAID) ?
I’m sorry if the questions can look stupid, but I don’t have clear ideas.
