Hi, I've got two SATA drives that are the exact same model and capacity (one
has newer firmware that causes it to report ata133 capability instead of
ata100, that's the only difference.) I'm considering turning them into a
raid 1 set.

What I'm wondering is, has anybody used the VT8237's built in SATA RAID
support in conjunction with NetBSD, and if so, how'd it perform? Was it
reliable, that sort of thing?

I'm open to trying raidframe as well, I just want to evaluate both options
first so that I can choose the best one.

- Sean
