The Ars article posted is a good one. That's what I followed to build my own RAID. Unfortunately, my motherboard doesn't have onboard RAID like some of the new ones, so I had to buy a separate card. FWIW, all I had to do was install a Promise Fasttrak RAID PCI Controller with two 30G IBM Deskstars 75GXP, reconfigure the bios to boot off the card, and finally fdisk a few new partitions and format the HDs. Got WinME on one partition and W2K on another and both have noticeable speed gains over the old HD config. My HD benchmarks =) members.home.net
