Hi,
If I have to implement a Software RAID , which is the best place to
implement it(that will reduce the effort involved)?
Is it
1)Miniport driver 2)Some kind of RAID Filter driver above the class driver
2)Or any other place
If it’s a RAID filter driver, do I have to implement a Volume manager
parallel to the existing one in case I don’t want to use the services of the
existing VM.
If you are aware of any RAID implementation document in windows please let
me know.
Thanks in Advance.

Why would you want to reinvent the wheel? The OS includes software RAID
already. Do you think you can do it better than the guys who have access to
the OS source?

Depends on whether you are trying to implement this on a single piece of
hardware, or across an arbitrary set of devices.
