My raid setup is being active all the time. What I mean by all the time is, it it flickers every so often like once every 0.5 seconds. it gets irritating!! i recently formatted and just booted up and it still does it!

any idea wat this might be?

i have:

AMD 3700
A8N Delux
2BG twinmos Pc3200

Flickering sounds like something your monitor or a light bulb will do.

What do you mean by your raid setup is flickering?
if you mean the activity LED - id say thats normal, its just your OS accessing the array.

if thats not it -- please explain.

yeh sorry, the LED is flickering and the HD is moving aswell even if i idle.
Is this normal for Raid 0 arrays? its quite annoying when i hear my hd accessing every .5 seconds.

Thanks
