Hi all I'm upgrading my new system From:
Abit IC7-G
P4 2.8 soc 478
4x 256 Corsair Dual Channell DDR PC3200
2x WD Raptors, Raid 0
XFX 6800 GT 256mb AGP
Zalman CNPS 7000 copper
Samsung SM-352 DVD/CDRW
To:
MSI K8N Diamond Plus
AMD Athlon 64 X2 3800+
Keep 2x WD raptors SATA raid 0 (72 gig total) or no raid?
1x Seagate Braacuda 80GB SATA II
Keeping Dual channell DDR ram
MSI Geforce 7600 GT PCI-X
Samsung Dual Layer DVD Burner
Keeping 450 Vantec Ion PSU and CASE, CDRW
Would it be better to install the Wondows XP on the SATAII drive, or Raptors in raid? or Raptor without raid, and use 3 seperate drives?(maybe 1 for linux)
Also, does anyone know where a step by step raid install guide for this mobo is on the web, if any? It has been a long time, 11/2003, since I installed raid. Thanks!! 8)
