Hi there!
I'm wondering if anyone has tried to enable the hardware raid on either the intel Z77 or Marvell controller to built a Raid 0 (or 5) volume and make it bootable to mountain lion? is it possible? or are we stuck to the apple software raid?
would it support trim in raid 0 for ssd? or will my intel 520 will soon be more sluggish than a 5400 rpm drive?
other than that :
if I buy an Areca 1882ix with the 4 sas internal port (16 sata 6g ports) and built a Raid 0 array of 8ssd and a raid 6 of 8x4Tb,
would I be able to boot on the ARECA raid 0 SSD ? or shall i better just buy a OWC PCIe SSD and just a 8 port areca HBA for the raid 6 ?
