Hi All
I recently went in to my BIOS setup on my PC and one of the setting options I was not Familiar with "RAID" I have done some recurch to find out what it means, but in my bios "Storage Options" setting it says "SATA Emulation set to "IDE" should I reset it to "RAID" ??
 
RAID is for redundancy and is mostly used in an business or enterprise environments. Most home users don't need RAID. RAID wasn't designed for performance as much as it was for redundancy (keeping a system running if a drive fails). I don't consider RAID 0 a true RAID as it offers no redundancy at all.
