So I just built a new media computer and instead of using a raid card (currently ARECA 1210, its about 8 years old) I planned on doing a software Raid 5 windows 10. what worries me it took all of a minute to build its 3x 4tb drives it should have taken days like when I used the controller card.
Is this normal? I was trying to go for low price but now I'm wondering if I should by a cheap raid controller and if so which one?
So my comp specs are below
16gb ram
Intel G2158
Asrock H97M mobo
3x 4tb Seagate HDD
