Computer Crash

My main computer crashed the other day. I was doing some updates and apparently it didn't like me updating the RAID driver because after I did that my RAID 0 drive disappeared.
So, now I'm in the process of reconstructing the RAID 0 drive so I can get the data off of it and reinstall winblows.
I should hopefully be back up and running here in a few days.

Ack.
I've never dealt with any of the RAID's, but I hear they blow. :P
And you're one post away from 2000.

So hopefully this will be one of my last noob questions, though I doubt it.
Why does a ComNet Apprentice have more than 6500 posts when the ComNet Emperor has only 2000? Does this mean that I get to be a ComNet God?

Maybe it's because Kadann, oh, I don't know, created the comnet?

Comnet Emperor = Master Moderator/Admin privileges on the Comnet. It is irregardless of the number of posts the person has.

RAIDs do not blow, I should know, I support them for a living. The problem with RAID0, as I'm sure Kad's aware, is that they're not redundant. A RAID0 is purely a performance enhancer. Granted, mostly what I see are hardware RAID1 and RAID5s, but thats the name of the game in the server space, which is mostly what I support.
Edit: I'm a Comnet Overlord and I have full admin rights and mod privs. Emperor was a rank he made for himself :P

RAIDs, I understood to be performance enhancers yes.
And on some ComNet's I'm ComNet Marshall. On others (where I don't have admin powers), I have my rank displayed.

And I thought RAID was supposed to increase stability

I like the performance the RAID 0 gives me. But I just hadn't done a full backup in awhile. So it sucks if you lose the RAID 0 array. RAID 1 wouldn't matter since both drives would be exactly the same.
If I had 2 more drives, I could setup the RAID0+1; which would give me redundancy as well.

Some RAIDs increase stability, some increase performance. Almost none of them do both (at least, not for both read and write functions).
