SATA drive questions + raid questions
hi,
i`m in the market for a new HDD (my maxtor 40gb just aint big enough) and i`m fancying making use of the 2x SATA ports on my a7n8x dlx mainboard. i`m liking western digital's offering of their 10,000 rpm 8mb cache SATA drive, but being only 36gb, it's just not big enough. is there any manufacture making a 10k rpm drive around the 80-120gb area? also, money permitting, i`m thinking about hitting the RAID striping scene, and if the drive is too expensive, then i`d add the 2nd drive at a later date. if i was todo this, i`d be running straight SATA for a while untill i can afford the 2nd HDD for RAID. will i be able to add the 2nd drive and setup a raid config without reinstalling winXP? thanks tim draper |
