I am installing a new Mother Board in my computer.

ASUS A8N SLI – Premium
4 GB RAM
2 Western Digital 74 GB Raptor
2 Maxtor 300 GB
Nvidia 7800 GT

The question is, should I install FAT32 or NTFS? Since I will be installing the 2 Raptors as a RAID 0, isn’t FAT32 faster?

Is there any other tip to help me configuring the system for best performance?

Last question, I heard the Norton Ghost 10 doesn’t work smoothly in Nforce4 RAID configuration, does the Acronis True Image 9 handle it better?

Thank you in advance

You're not going to notice any performance difference between FAT32 and NTFS. However, you will notice a much more stable and secure file system with NTFS.
