So because its not worth it to you cause you *hate* doing a windows install (painless imo) then RAID 0 is no good? I dont know, it doesnt bother me one bit, and the performance is not negligible...its a nice boost in speed. I use photoshop alot so to me, i love the boost.
The way i see it is, i have one RAID 0 for Windows, then a separate normal 500GB drive for my music,movies,pictures etc etc...if you setup is like mine, then who cares if one drive fails. Id rather have the performance than worry about the drive failing. Now, if you run a server with a bunch of...
After some reading, it appears that my Pentium D 805 is the limiting factor here. It seems that the small FSB allows for DDR-533 at max. Looks like ill be buying a C2D (or Quadcore) soon. No sense in having such memory if its gonna be stuck at less than 533.
My motherboard allows DDR2-800, yet when i defaulted back to all stock speeds, my new ram still isnt running at 800Mhz. Any reason why?? Im confused about this memory thing.
