However, it probably means that it can spread the I/O load over multiple I/O controllers. (similar features in other systems? SHMO --rdv) RAID0 is in late beta under Linux. (evesg@etlcom3.etl.go.jp (Gjoen Stein), 95/10/6) sdsadmin on the HP 7xx line does raid 0 striping and works well. this is also apparently possible on the 8xx machines using LVM. sdsadmin is due to disappear with hpux 10, replaced by LVM. I believe the Advanced FS on Alphas can also do raid 0. (mark hahn, hahn@neurocog.lrdc.pitt.edu, 94/11/17) ATTO Technology has ExpressStripe, which does software striping on a Mac. Cyranix http://www.cyranex.com makes EZRAID PRO (RAID 0,1,4,5) for OS/2.
