Here's a situation i'll be e going up againts:
i have a Revodrive 240GB which is fake or software RAID 0 (not really sure but maybe "fake") it's not Hardware Raid that's guaranteed.
i also have 2 1 TB SATA HDDs which i want to pair in another RAID 0
The Plan
Revodrive:
120 GB for Windows
115 GB for Linux /
5 GB swap
The two SATAs:
100-200MB RAID 1 for /boot (grub and stuff)
and the rest in 2 logical drives 1 in NTFS and 1 for linux
The OSes would be Windows 7/8 and Natty 11.** (aiming at Kubuntu)
Here's the actual idea. Can i do the following?:
1.Boot the Natty CD/DVD and from there set up the SATAs RAID 0 (needs to be readable for other nonilinux OSes) and RAID 1
2. Install Windows on the revodrive using 120 GB from it
3.Install Grub and Linux on the SATAs RAID 1 and the revodrive respectfully
4.Set BIOS to boot from the RAID 1 (not important but how do i do that)
i'm sure Linux Can read the Revo`s RAID 0 with the proper firmware and Windows has no problem in that aspect as well
In general is this idea going to work and if you see a problem please do say so
thanks
P.S. The MoBo is GA-x58A-UD7 (it has a RAID function but i rly would like not using it)
Also everything absolutely new so no data to worry about
