Does Gigabyte RAID 5 have standby drive autorecover?
We want to replace an old HP proliant server with RAID 5. HP server
bios allows config of an unused standby drive to automatically kick in if any active drive in the array fails. Regular consumer MBs seem to all support RAID 5 but this is not documented. We are thinking of a gigabyte board. Do these support a similar standby drive to be used for automatic recovery of a failed RAID 5 array drive? |

I would assume that all drives are active, however not all drives are not needed to sustain the system until repair. |
