#Linux raid monitor software#
This would probably reduce the likelihood of it being software monitorable at all since it's designed to not present itself as a RAID device, rather it appears to be designed to pretend it's a single hard drive. The Startech one appears to be designed not to expose its inner workings to the OS, so as to be OS-independent. Neither of these are enterprise RAID products, it's likely tools for Linux will be limited, if they exist at all. The Startech chipset is ASMedia ASM1092R. The chipset of the device would be the relevant factor for finding out if any compatible utilities exist for software management, and those tools are likely capable of monitoring or at least reporting the status of the array so you can develop your own RAID monitoring script.įor the links you posted, the IcyDock chipset is JMicron JMS562. In order to make anything close to this, a software developer would have to work out every unique tool to interface with every unique controller, and for sure, something would be overlooked and the solution would not be compatible with everything. Sometimes even RAID cards from the same vendor require different tools. There are a disorganized array of vendor-specific tools. There is essentially no standardization in hardware RAID software tools. The reason is because there is no such thing as "standard hardware RAID". As far as I know, no such thing exists anywhere (even Windows).
