External RAID
I have a PowerMac G4 500 (Sawtooth). I am looking for an RAID unit. I would like the RAID unit to be external. Do I need a PCI card for the RAID unit? What software do I need to set up the RAID, if any, or will Mac OS X recognize it immediately? Anything else you can tell me that I did not think to ask will be appreciated.

all you need is a bunch of external drives and enclosures... you could get something like the SAN cube or a specialized RAID enclosure... but it won't be much different then doing it yourself...
if you can make a raid with 5 floppy disks... you ran make a raid with anything... <http://ohlssonvox.8k.com/fdd_raid.htm>
what kind of raid are you looking on making? one to make access really fast or really reliable?
