Can you use regular IDE devices (zip, cdrom, etc) on an onboard RAID controller? Basically can the RAID controller double as an extra IDE controller? If so, do you lose any performance? what's the downside drawbacks? I basically don't want to use RAID 0 function anymore because of reliability issues. The little real world performance increase isn't worth low reliability to me, I have 2x 60gxp drives in RAID 0. I just want to use the RAID controller as a 3rd and 4th IDE controller. Thanks.

thanks for the input....i'll try it out and see how it goes. I'm runnin an onboard Promise RAID controller (Tyan Tiger 200 mobo)
