Am I in for problems with this set up?


Gday All,
I am not even new to Linux as I havent touched it yet but I intend to install it on my new PC.
I am Planning on building thisMore or less)
P4 3.4GHz
ASUS P4C800 E Deluxe
4 X 74 Gb Raptors in Raid 0+1
8x DVD Burner Pioneer
Leadtek FX5950 ultra A380

I want to install Mandrake 10 only on this system (No Microslop) I have read around the forum that Software Raid is probably faster than Chipset IE ICH5(which also has problems under LInux), Is the software Raid Native to Mandrake or do I need a 3rd party solution or plug in? If so any suggestions?

Are there any other Issues I would need to look at with the installation IE Drivers? And apart from hardware manufacturers; are there any good download sites for Linux drivers?

I am still in the planning stages of the build so any and all suggestions are welcome and will be taken on board!

Thanks for your advice!
