Cheap RAID 0, how to?

[PandaBear]

My MB doesn't support RAID on board, and is not planning to buy another board anytime soon, just want to utilize the 2 old drives (seagate 7200.7) that are 120gb each. Not small enough to throw away but not large enough for my own use.

Performance is not an issue and neither are reliability (backup every day and nothing important on this PC). Only plan to run Win2k (Linux on another HD already) so I guess a software RAID solution is good too.

Any suggestion? i.e. driver or bios overlay that can handle it? or any cheap old lowcost adapter?

Which OS are you using? If you are using a recent windows OS, you should be able to span the drives with the disk management console.

Can you do this on a boot or system volume? or do you need a separate drive/partition for boot?
