3.) Software RAID/Fake-RAID is not suited for the enterprise environment, with that said, you can still run Proxmox on Software RAID, but it's not supported. You don't need a $300 RAID card, I bought a complete >>server recently for $200 that had a built-in LSI SAS1064E controller<br>

I'm begin to test raid management at lvm level (available since last lvm releases), maybe it could be easy to extend the proxmox installer.<br>

I made some tests months ago, and I was socked to see that when a disk in LVM raid-1 broke, LVM provided no warning (as opposed to mdadm, that sends a message and logs to syslog).<br>
<br>
Maybe it was bad configuration on my part, but it made us continue to use mdadm for softRAID and never look back.<br>
<br>
BTW, we have mdadm deployed for production purposes in a pair of clusters with success. I think that with the level of expertise required to manage mdadm softRAID, relaying on the debian installer is good enough.<br>
