    RAID was associated with SCSI interface only in the past. The capital outlay generally puts people out of the door. This situation is about to change with the introduction of IWILL VD133 Pro™. A high performance IDE RAID host adapter, with Ultra ATA66 interface. The SIDE RAID66™ offers RAID 0 (Striping), RAID 1 (Mirroring) and RAID 0+1 (Striping + Mirroring) functions, and supports the Ultra ATA 33/66 hard disks commonly found in the market today.
