brilliant thinking, infact I know there is a jumper for just that. And I don't need that Sata II speed since it is just for backup/storage. And I will still get the performance benefit of using it as a scratch disk for audio/drafting temp. Antimatter, thanks a bunch.

Antimatter, I like your suggestion. Would there be any problems having a raid 1 with a Sata I and a Sata II drive? they are both 250gb. And if that works, that'd be great because I'd rather have a Sata II drive running my apps (Although i've read noone seems to notice the difference between Sata...

I'm not on a tight budget. Right now this setup comes to a little over 1200 dollars.

First off, my current desktop is 5 years old. A dell 8400 with a P4 3.0ghz processor, and 1 gig of ram. This is what I want to build: Asus P5K Deluxe E6600 Clocked up somewhere between 3.0 and 3.6ghz 4x1gb Corsair XMS2 DDR2 800 (4-4-4-12) Zalman 9700 w/ Arctic Silver 5 Antec 900 Antec True...

I wasn't sure where to stick this post. Anyway I watch region 1 and 2 dvds. Can I get by with having a DVD/RW drive set to region 1, and a plain DVD-ROM set to region 2? I'm a bit confused about vistas handling of regions, I can't find very much information on it. If i'm off base, can you...

I think the antec 900 will take care of cooling. I was more asking if it is technically sound to have two duplicate drives in a raid 0 array, while having 1, maybe even 2 separate drives also in the machine, so I suppose in windows- the raided drives would show as one drive, while the...

I'm currently looking at the P5k Deluxe. I've been scouring the web and am pretty sure the Zalman 9700 will fit but am not entirely sure. However, here is my big question about raids. Do you think I would have a problem having two sata drives in a raid 0 array, and a third sata drive outside...
