The UD4P seems to have:
6x SATA ports off the ICH10R
2x SATA ports off the "Gigabyte SATA" chip off the PCIE bus.
both of which are capable of fakeRAID 0/1.
I will be configuring 2 Intel SSDs in RAID 0, 2 WD 640's in RAID 1, 2 additional HDDs as deep storage, and 1 SATA optical drive.
Question: for best performance, which ports should I be using for each drive? For example, is the Gigabyte controller slower than the ICH10R (ie. best for optical drive; or the rotating drive array), or faster (best for SSDs)? And is it best to have the arrays on separate controllers, or does the ICH10R do fine with multiple arrays?
Set me up
Thanks
