wizard8873 8 Posted February 2, 2005 I am planning to purchase the Vantec EZ-swap SATA rack for my two drives but i have one concern. I am running the at raid 0 and i'm worried that they wont work with the rack since the racks have jumpers on them. knowing the sata doesnt need jumpers, does anyone know if the setup will still work?

jmmijo 1 Posted February 2, 2005 Well AFAIK RAID Zero does not support Hot-Swapping so this is not going to work in that respect, however I think it should work in non hot-swap mode, i.e., you have to power down the machine before removing or inserting the drive carriers Now the only reason I can see you wanting to do this for a RAID Zero config is the ease of replacing a drive but if a drive fails in a Raid Zero config, then most likely the data is fragged and you have to start over once again The other possible advantage would be the cooling fan that these cages usually come with as well, but since so many chassis come with added cooling for HD's this seems to be a moot point as well.
