    Disabling Windows software RAID0 question.

    I'm not sure how to know, just plug it in and see what happens. Some boards can read the drive and only show what your bios is capable of reading, like 2TB or so. My board just plain doesn't want to read it. It showed up in bios once, but only once. Just know that no UEFI bios = no dice.

    Disabling Windows software RAID0 question.

    Yeah, I just use the array to record fraps videos to and store music and movies. I'll give it a go tonight or tomorrow and report back what happens. Unfortunately I don't have the funds to purchase another external to back up my files so I'll just keep my fingers crossed. Shouldn't be an...

    Disabling Windows software RAID0 question.

    I have 2 1tb drives in RAID0 made in windows (not in bios) and I recently bought a 4TB drive for more storage. Due to limitations in my motherboard, I was forced to purchase a new mainboard with UEFI bios because my previous board won't even recognize it. My problem is I don't have a way...

    Problems setting up raid with single SSD OS drive...

    Asus Crosshair IV Formula Bios options only allow me to either use 1-4 as raid and 5-6 as ide or 1-6 as raid. No options for AHCI/RAID combo. The SSD (Vertex 2) is set up as Raid on sata port 1. It is my understanding that trim and all the fancy SSD stuff is implemented through windows...

    Problems setting up raid with single SSD OS drive...

    Set up a raid 0 with 2 spinpoint f3s on my crosshair iv, along with my single Vertex 2 as the OS drive. I had to set all sata ports to RAID, otherwise only ports 5-6 can be set to IDE with 1-4 set in RAID. So my question is, why are all my single drives showing up as SCSI drives in device...

    new raid 0 stripe, Spinpoint F3 2x 1tb drives performance

    Just downloaded Active SMART and it's saying "ActiveSMART could not detect any hard drive with S.M.A.R.T. support...." how is that possible? And what implications can this cause?

    new raid 0 stripe, Spinpoint F3 2x 1tb drives performance

    Everything is stock. I know it's limited, that's all I can work with myself. The setup runs pretty fast, but it hangs up sometimes for unknown reasons to me.

    Vertex 2 vs Crucial M4(C400)

    Are they really that bad? Everyone praises them.

    Vertex 2 vs Crucial M4(C400)

    So I just bought a vertex 2 120gb for my m11x, without even thinking about the new c400. I know these are backwards compatible with sata II boards. So would the c400 be a better performer in sata 2 than a vertex 2?
