Hi, I wanted to point out that Intel Rapid Storage Technology failed me twice, resulting in data loss. First time was randomly and second time was after I upgraded BIOS. I got a notification that my RAID 0 (2x HDD) configuration failed and I had to re-create it. There was no option other than recreating it, so I lost lots of data. Both drives are 100% functional and the problem was clearly in the software. I am highly disappointed with this software and wouldn't recommend it to anyone.
PS: Before formatting the new RAID, I used a software to recover data and I saw all file names and sizes to appear correctly. However, when I tried to recover them, contents were corrupted: photos were showing a small part and the rest was noise, and videos were corrupted and wouldn't play (64KB size). Probably because with RAID-0 the file blocks are stripped among available storage volumes.
Thanks,
Dimos
