That may be the case. I have no idea to be honest. I'm certainly stuck in my ways though in that I would always take a hardware raid with a BBU on a RAID10, 50 or 60. I'm not really much of a fan of RAID5, but I do like RAID10, in particular, for databases and always prefer a quality hardware raid controller, like an LSI product. As such, I've always balked at even the hint of a software raid when ordering servers, so my experience with software raid is extremely limited.
