How come ProTools doesn't support RAID, when RAID is transparent to whole operating system and matrix is visible as normal hard drive.
Please tell me what read/write speeds are typicall.
Pro Tools will utilize however many cores you have in your system, including virtual.

RAID isn't entirely transparent if it is internal. It's also not really necessary, nor as reliable as claimed. Making regular backups is far safer.

There aren't really any "typical" read/write speeds for Pro Tools, as it's entirely dependent on the user. How many tracks/plugs/VIs/samples you're using will affect disk performance in various ways.
