Hey guys,
I have an intel 128mb SRCSATAWB Raid card plus 8x2tb westend digis plus two Istar backplanes
I'm going to redo my system but this time no raid, but my card for some reason does not allow for the drives to come up unless i put them in raid. However, i can put a single drive in Raid 0 so thats cool i guess, i doubt that it will crash since all the data is on the same drive.
Anyway, few question for you storage gurus
Should i enable the disk cache since its single drive or leave it off
Files on the drive will be big (MKV's) should i do a 1mb stripe?
If i unplug this drive from my array and plug it into say an ich10 will the drive come or will it only work on this raid card?
