Help text

If you say Y here, then your multiple devices driver will be able to use the so-called raid0 mode, i.e. it will combine the hard disk partitions into one logical device in such a fashion as to fill them up evenly, one chunk here and one chunk there. This will increase the throughput rate if the partitions reside on distinct disks.

Information about Software RAID on Linux is contained in the Software-RAID mini-HOWTO, available from https://www.tldp.org/docs.html#howto. There you will also learn where to get the supporting user space utilities raidtools.

To compile this as a module, choose M here: the module will be called raid0.

If unsure, say Y.
