Hum.
Do you mean, just don't use any mirroring and or striping,
or do you mean changing some setting so that raid is disabled.
If you mean the latter I have never seen such an option. If
you mean the first scenario, that is what I have done. It is
strange that these limitations exist, because the on-board
SATA RAID works fine with FreeBSD, but were not going to
discuss that here.
For those who use the term "winraid" to descibe some kind of
inferior software raid, I would suggest that you explain what
you mean by don't use it, in light of this post.
