Does NT Workstation support RAID?

A. Workstation does not support fault tolerant RAID, e.g. RAID 1 or RAID 5, however it does support RAID 0 (stripe set without parity). Obviously hardware RAID will work as it is transparent to the Operating System. There is much talk about changing the ProductType registry key to enable fault tolerance on NT Workstation and while it can be done this is against Microsoft licensing and would also be unsupported by Microsoft. Do NOT mail me asking for the method as I will not distribute it and will just delete the mail message without replying.
