google for it... there is plenty of info on it.

any type of raid built into the motherboard is considered sofware raid.
it also uses your cpu.
hardware raid uses a separate piece of hardware, a raid controller, with its own cpu.

you can kind of think of it as integrated graphics vs a dedicated graphics cared.
integrated is not too fast, with some motherboards it accesses your system ram. dedicated is much faster, has its own ram.
No hate here. I made a statement, the poster made a very generalized argument that I was 100% wrong. I asked for evidence backing his claim, to which he has still not provided and sidestepped by making a strawman argument against my alleged lack of general knowledge.

It's not my burden to back my statement when he's the one making the counter claim. I asked him to prove it, he didn't or won't. I appreciate knowledge when it's provided, and I'm not looking to be spoon fed.
I can appreciate being wrong, but back it up with fact of HOW I'm wrong.
