I set up Raid1 on 2 Sata drives in a Dell poweredge 750.

The raid works kinda. Compared to the many other Raid1 setups I have maid with woody using both IDE and SCSI the SATA is a little lacking. If you lose one drive (tested by physically unpluging the drive) the system will crash. You can then reboot on the good drive and the system will come back up.

To make sure it was SATA I ran the test on another machine using IDE and a crash did not occur. I also have about 20 other machines that have upgraded to sarge with both SCSI and IDE and they seem to still work as planned. For what ever reason SATA and raid get a score of "Better than nothing" rather than a nice Raid1 set.

Be warned and let me know if anybody else has got it to work.
