RAID is a setup dat u can create with 2 or more SATA hdds,its not a slot as u say.I think u were trying to point to ur secondary IDE slot.If not den plz clarify urself.

a secondary raid array is setup to create a vast disk transfer between two or more sata dirves as raido raid 1 and raid 2 and raid 3 as per sata connectors on your mobo
