I recently built a system which included an Asus A8V-E DELUXE mobo and
a Maxtor 250G S-ATA drive with 16Meg cache (6B250S0)hard drive. You can
get more information about my system at
http://www.pcpitstop.com/techexpress.asp?id=A4CGMW4UQBQS7X86.
When I had the S-ATA drive connected to the SATA1 connector on the
board (in IDE mode - NOT RAID) the disk rate that I was experiencing
was very slow at 4 MB/sec. When I switched it over to the SATA2
connector, my system performed much better at 50 MB/sec.
I am very happy with the performance that I now get out of this system.
However if I ever decide to add a second S-ATA drive as RAID 0 or
otherwise I assume that it will run slow again (this board only
supports 2).
Is there a setting that I forgot to set? Is the mobo faulty?
I would appreciate any input I get.
Thanks
