Raid5

I've e-mailed Highpoint regarding this issue, and am apparently being hung out to dry. Have had five 250Gb HDDs in a RAID5 on this controller for years and years. Recently, it began showing up as 'critical' due to a single failing drive. I added in a new spare, and started the rebuild...

I'm trying to add an internal 10-15TB RAID5 M.2 NVMe PCIe 4.0 data drive to a Win 10 Pro PC based on Gigabyte X570S Aorus Master MoBo with AMD 5950x CPU. I've had good experience with Areca HW RAID controllers over the years with spinning drives. It looks like for M.2 NVMe I have the choice of...

I am relatively knowledgeable in the PC building space, but little experience. In my new build I want to fiddle around with RAID a bit just for the fun of it. I want a mix of redundancy and increased speed for my hard drives. From what I could find, which most of it is from 6+ years ago, you...

So I am trying to copy some video clips from an SSD to a RAID5 array on Win 10 about 15Gb. The copying starts out well at about 350Mb/sec then after about 30sec the speed drops to a puny 1.5 Mb/s or 2 at most. Can this be an SSD or a RAID5 array issue? How can I test this? Thanks! Gabster

I have a Acer desktop with two hard drives and I would hope it is as easy as just buying a Windows 7 disc and choosing the hard drive I install to, but I have been told that things like GPT or UEFI on my current hard drive, or installing raid when I do the install could all cause problems...
