My motherboard on my download box failed yesterday so I'm going to be rebuilding it shortly, so I'm considering moving my download box operating system to WHS but I have a few questions before I make a decision.
Currently I have a RAID 5 array made up of 4x 500GB Disks on a Highpoint RocketRAID 2310 Raid Card which stores all my music, videos and photos. As I understand it WHS doesn’t support RAID and I would need to copy my data off the array, then rebuild it as JBOD array for WHS to utilise the disks – is that correct?
How serious are the data corruption issues currently affecting the software? When is a fix due?
I know that Powerpack 1 is due shortly which will finally deliver the x64 connecter software, when is it due for release and if I decide to go with WHS can I use the shares n WHS without having the connecter software installed on my Vista x64 PC?
