HDD's on GA-7N400 (SATA/IDE/RAID)
i'm starting fresh with 2 WD120SE's and 1 Maxtor SATA 80. i have a large
music/video library served from my computer. I plan on putting the OS on the SATA. any suggestions for the WD's? Should i run through Nforce or the Gigaraid? And if Gigaraid, should I RAID? Which port is better for non-RAID? athlon 2.0gig 512 DDR 400 radeon 9800 Thanks, HC |

As to the WD 120SE's, Raid 0 is the way to go. I use Gigaraid on a pair
Maxtor Diamont Max 8's and I'm getting a transfer rate (on large files) of over 90MB/s. Installation is easy and the data just flies in. The Maxtor SATA 80 ( in a box ) I'm not to sure of. I'd look at the drive to be sure it was the 6Y080Mo.
