I just realized my (2) Velociraptors max speed is 3Gb. I have an ASUS Sabertooth x58 motherboard with (6) SATA 3 connections and (2) Marvell SATA 6 connections. I want to know what is the best possible performance I can get. Should I run the 2 velociraptors on a RAID 0 with SATA 3 or the 1 Caviar black on the SATA 6 connection? I use my PC for gaming and multimedia editing. Here is my components.
Windows 7 X64 Home Premium
i7 950 @ 3.07 GHz
ASUS Sabertooth X58 - motherboard - ATX - LGA1366 Socket
12 GB RAM
GeForce GTX 570
1 TB Caviar Black SATA 6.0 Gb/s 7200 RPM
(2) 150 GB SATA 3.0 Gb/s VelociRaptor 10,000 RPM
I really appreciate your input. Thanks!
