My teacher saw the message below and wanted me to clarify that it was
DynamicDisks that he doesn't think Linux does.... not RAID.

Perhaps this is the comeback?

According to that, Linux can do Software RAID 0, 1, 4, 5, 10.. I glanced
quickly at the MS KB regarding Dynamic Disk and it seems like it is
simply RAID 0, 1, 5 so I am not sure what the difference is?
I did a search on Google and found a benchmark on a software RAID 5
setup (11x120GB 5400RPM drives) using Promise Ultra66 controllers and a
1.6Ghz Pentium 4 processor and it had 93MB/sec read and 26MB/sec write..
Given the number of disks, the single processor and 5400RPM drives, that
sounds pretty good to me.
