Can someone recommend inexpensive software for RAID on SCSI drives.
(I'm running WfWG, Win95 and (soon) WinNT 4 Workstation.)

I believe it is possible to set up RAID (Redundant Arrays of
Inexpensive Disks) on SCSI using only software, no need for
fancy controller hardware. (A friend said it might be in
EZ-SCSI 4, which I don't mind buying, but at the moment I'm
using EZ-SCSI 3 or the native Win95 drivers.)

This is an experiment with RAID for the educational experience,
not for out-and-out performance.

I want to try disk striping in RAID 0 and striping with
distributed parity in RAID 5. When I get it working
I'll probably use it to run a Virtual CD server.
