RAID controller compatibility doubt
-
Having a RAID1 through the motherboard controller. My doubt is that if it breaks, I would have problems mounting it on another platform; whether it be Intel, AMD or in a NAS.
The issue comes, first by supine ignorance of the subject, and second because I have heard rumors that there could be incompatibility between chipset controllers.Thanks in advance.

Thanks in advance.No I have not tried it, but in principle I understand that Raid 1 allows you to use one of the loose disks directly, without the need for a raid controller, as an individual disk in case of failure of the other disk.

True, and now I realize that what I really wanted to know I have not put in the initial entry: what would happen if I had other RAID configurations?
Sorry and again, thank you.

If it's raid 0, you're screwed, the information is spread across all the disks and there is no redundancy, so you lose everything if one dies. Raid 5/6 I understand that you have to install it on a board with the same controller, not all controllers implement raid in the same way, which tells you the type of raid is the number of redundancy units they include. If what dies is the controller, in principle you can recover the information from a raid 0 if you put it on another computer with the same raid controller, it may ask you to repair it, but you shouldn't lose the information.
I love how badly I explain myself XD

That's where I was going, because I was told that, everything that is not RAID1, it's better to do it with software; because I don't know to what extent the motherboard drivers are compatible with each other.
Once we reach that catastrophic point, the fact that "only" had to be rebuilt would be the least of my worries; not losing the information would be enough for me to be happy. Thanks for the clarification.
