Help w/ Raid0 and SSD

[sickure]

I planed using 4 30gb OCZ ssd drives in Raid 0 on my mobo EVGA 132-BL-E758-A1 LGA 1366 Intel X58. Can someone confirm whether this is possible on this board? Please help. I'm mid build and i think I can only have 2 drives in Raid with this mobo. Am i missing something? I'm not using a Raid card fyi.

ICH10R supports a lot more than 2 drives in RAID0, so 4 drives won't be an issue.

ok...in the manual it says that only 2 ports support Raid

I will do it no problem.

does it matter which sata ports i use?

 

[sickure]

also....will i have to have a floppy drive?

You have to use the SATA ports connected to the ICH10R (most likely the black ones). The limit of 2 drives might apply to the red SATA ports. You don't need a floppy.
