NOTE:
To reduce the chance of losing data, ALi imposes certain limitations on
the RAID configuration options. PATA drives connected on the same
IDE channel cannot be selected as the members of a RAID 1 array.
Avoid mixing PATA and SATA disk drives in a RAID 1 array.
Always use disk drives of the same capacity to create a RAID array.
The excessive capacity of a larger disk drive cannot be utilized
because data stripes are equally distributed across all members of a
RAID array.
