    Finally got my dream PC, now what do I do with all my hard drives? (confused, help!)

    Oh yes I backup on additional computers and an external hard drive. Right now my new build is in a state where it's not a big deal to reinstall/format/whatever in order to maximize performance. Thank you to everyone for the information - it's helped a ton.

    Finally got my dream PC, now what do I do with all my hard drives? (confused, help!)

    Good info here - I'll look into Raid 5. I did use the Control + I method to create my array. Am I able to do that with AHCI set in my BIOS and will I need F6 drivers? (Googling my butt off, a lot of people disagree on the whole AHCI vs BIOS settings)

    Thanks for the quick reply Danny. If I do keep this setup, shouldn't I change my SATA setup in my BIOS to AHCI instead of RAID? If I understand correctly, AHCI has additional features that drives can utilize.

    I have been a fan of [H] for so very long. 90% of my PC purchases have been a direct result of information obtained on these forums and I have had nothing but wonderful results. However, I feel lost when it comes SSD/HDD configurations. I have always been one of those people who just...

    The Totally Awesome Directron Drawing!

    The main reason I love AMD is because the first CPU I ever overclocked was AMD. It was a mere 200MHz. That's a low OC by today's standards, but I was (and still am) amazed by the performance I can squeeze out of AMD products.

    3 Enermax SpineRex Chassis Up for Grabs

    The first thing I thought to myself was that it looks pretty and might make my girlfriend jealous. However, if I had to pick one feature I'd go with the flip-open design. We all know that "Dang, I need to take apart my PC to fix this one little thing" feeling. This case looks like it makes...

    MSI XPower Motherboard / Metro 2033 Giveaway.

    He-Man would be better off with XPower because he could finally defeat Skeletor with a cheese photon cannon rush in Starcraft II.

    When does [H] publish it's low and high budget build guides? Isn't it yearly?

    I remember a couple of times [H]ardOCP would post an article with the best builds for a $1000 and $2000 budget. I thought it was around December (before xmas) when they did this. Anyone know? I ask because my cousin wants an entirely new system and doesnt have a huge budget. And of course...
