SCSI Raid Card question

[Script917]

I have a LSI 21320-IS 2 channel U320 64 bit pci-x scsi raid-0 card, can I run a single drive as a boot drive from this card or do I need two drives to raid together before it will work? Can I only do raid 0 or can I have more than one fully accessible drives?

LSI is just the chip on the card, not the brand of the card itself. Technically the maker of the card itself could make the BIOS only function if you run the drives in RAID. However it's unlikely; you should be able to run the drives in any combination you want. It will act just like a normal SCSI card, unless you specifically configure a RAID array.

LSI makes tons of cards themselves: Link

Anyway I am sure you can put just a single drive in it without doing Raid 0. It might make you create a single drive array, but either way, I doubt you will need to drives to use the card.
