Best raid strip size for windows XP?

[goldznnz]

ps don't pound this kigga (korean igga) too hard , i know this has prolly been ask a million times though. (i tried searching here too but vague info)

i would really like experienced advice to know what is the best strip size (for performance) just for windows xp os. i'll have a separate partition or another drive for my data and thangs.

what do you guys think about 32k, 64k, or 128k strip size?

i've actually tried 64k and 128k, don't know if my minds playing games on me but the 64k seems a tad snappier

thanks homeys!

@ home, use 64k. If your using Raid 0 or raid 5 at work on a file server, use 128k. 128k @ home is going to hurt you because you just don't have the I/O request. lower drive useage (like at home) benefits more from 64k.
