Hi,
I'm planning to install a raid 0 controller in my computer,and I saw Promise they have two different products for raid. Which is good ? And some people tell me Ultra 100 is not for raid 0, it just a normal IDE interface, is that true?

Anything with a Promise Chipset is going to be good! I wouldn't by anything but that for IDE drives ...

You can have Ultra ATA 100 in a RAID card but if it just says that it's ATA100 then it most likely isn't RAID. Like I have a ATA100 Promise RAID controller built on to my MSI Mobo, but the standard IDE controllers are ATA100.
