    No - even though it's been around for ages.

    It turns out that whoever wrote the Workstation Resource Kit program FTEDIT was unaware of Microsoft's official policy on fault tolerance and Workstation: it appears you can use this utility to create mirrors and striped sets with parity on Workstations.

    i wouldn' touch it software raid big no no - all you is a bit of metadata and your screwed a raid set that will not rebuild - if you are planning on going for a raid 5 set - i would get a controller that supports it-
