Does this board support RAID-0?

Hi!Honestly, i don't used it (i don't try it yet). But in the specifications, that's avaliable.

No it does not. I got tricked, but after digging deep into MSI's support page I a chart that says it doesn't. Amazon and MSI's upfront easy to read marketing info is a bit deceptive on this one. It clearly says "Super RAID" on the features list. Not true on this board.

Yes. I installed two of these into servers running windows 2012 server 64-bit running raid 5. However, this unit doesn't have built-in raid. You would still need a raid card or have a motherboard that has raid built-in to achieve raid 5 however.

Yes, you can just use it as a regular SATA controller, you don't have to set up RAID if you don't want to. That's how I use it.

The internal RAID controller supports RAID 0, 1, 3, 5, 10, and JBOD (Non-RAID, or "Just a Bunch of Disks"). RAID configuration is accomplished through a dip-switch on the rear of the unit or through a GUI supported by Mac, Linux or PC.

Hi, yes indeed, as well as being a raid 0, 1, 5 unit this product is also a very competent JBOD (just a bunch of discs) that interfaces with your via a decent USB 3.0 port. It very (too) easily switches between those storage configurations; just don't make the mistake of switching before you've backed up your data!!

Yes, but why use this old card now for RAID? The SATA supports only 150 MB/s. Most new drives will be SATA III, 6Gb/s or up to 550 GB/s. Just my $0.02 worth.

Yes, it comes with two 7200 rpm drives already in place. And it is capable of being set for either Raid 1 or Raid 0. Just remember that if you decide to change between either Raid 1 or 0 that you will lose all data previously saved. So make sure you know which one you want to use before starting.

Yes, I have two internal drives running off this card, paired in a RAID 1, set up through Win 7. If your motherboard and OS supports RAID, it's not a problem.

In the past RAID has been a hardware supported function. I don't use this in a RAID setup as I only have two drives in it so far. You should view this as four separate USB to SATA bridges. Any RAID function you want to use will have to be 100% software implemented.

No. You can use the built in "software RAID" that windows 7/2008 etc provide. But the card itself doesn't contain RAID. It's strictly a card for adding SATA ports. So, if your motherboard supports RAID, there isn't a reason for this card unless you just need additional SATA ports, or if you need a card that provides faster SATA connections than what your motherboard supports.

Yes, the default is Synology Hybrid Raid (SHR) which is like RAID1 but more versatile.

I don't really know. It could be, that this will work. I'm running mine with 4x3TB in RAID 5 with no problems.

This is a single bay NAS, and only contain one HDD inside. So it didn't support RAID.

StarTech PEXESAT32 2 Port SATA 6 Gbps PCI Express eSATA Controller Card states that it supports RAID0 and RAID1

works fine with my windows 8.1 64pro, the raid and the direct connection (sansung evo, raid 2 western digital 2TB )(motherboard gigabyte ud4p, intel 7 930)

It depends how you want to use it. In Raid 0 it will work, but in Raid 1 it will not work.
