I'm building a new computer using a z77 mobo. The relevant parts are:
1 asus P8 z77-m pro mobo
1 intel 313 24gb slc ssd for an SRT cache
1 WD black 1tb hd
I get that I need to install the wd black in raid mode. But the manual says: "Due to chipset limitation, when set any of the SATA ports to RAID mode, all SATA ports run at RAID mode together."
I have 6 sata ports (2x sata 3, and 4x sata 2). Does that mean all the SATA ports are going to be used up by installing one HD? or just the sata 2 ports or just the sata 3 ports?
It seems like it would make srt useless/impossible if this is the case.
How would you hook them up?
