I've got a RAID0 setup, its been running fine for a good few months now - no probs.

Just one little question though - I get a single drive temp reading (in systool or any other util), which drive temp is this, or maybe it's an average? Both drives are capable of providing temp readings - I've had them installed non-raid and seen 2 readings before.

It's not a problem as both drives are next to each other, identical drives and therefore are going to be pretty much the same temp - in fact when I had them installed non-RAID I did indeed get 2 identical readings.

Its a ASrock Dual Sata2 mobo - I'm sure the RAID controller is the key to the answer to this question!!

I expect one of the drives is made the 'master' raid drive or something like that and the temperature would come from that. I may be completely wrong so don't quote me on that!
