Default RAID controller usage?

I have added a PCI RAID controller for 2 more primary IDE slots (4 total if run slave/master). Now from what I can tell in the forum you should have any RAID controllers disabled due to hardware problems and HW buffer problems in PT LE. Can anyone explain this better? should i get rid of this RAID card or not? I would hate to have to slave my DVD-RW off of my audio HDD or my system HDD. any suggestions? thanks!

(PS, system drive is master from motherboard IDE slot 1, DVD-RW is master from motherboard IDE slot 2, 160GB audio drive is master from PCI IDE slot 1). is this bad?

Default Re: RAID controller usage?

You could probably leave the card in your system, but dont enable RAID on them. They usually can also work as normal IDE-controllers. Some people here have some sort of RAID operational on their system, but it is not supported by Digidesign, and i have read a few horrorstories here that where solved by disabling RAID.....

cool, i just have it set up as more IDE slots so i dont have to have 2 drives that i would use at the same time slaved. I used to get burning problems on my DVD-RW before when it was slaved.
