since we are at this. can i have some more tips from you, what OS are you using? how to choose good quality memory, any examples? technically, what happen when we 'raid 2-3 hdd'?
many thanks in advance.
Dear Concreteok,
My OS is XP SP3 64bit, but I am using various versions of Windows on the disk. What I mean with good quality is the ones designed for overclocking. I suggest manual overclocking because you can only achive the speed I mentioned by this way (with ~1.45 core voltage!!!). Automatic overclocking or performance boost will not do it. Mine is Corsair TWIN2X4096-6400C4DHX and I suggest that brand. Memory will get very hot in overclocking and ordinary ones crashes and restarts the system. There are different types of raid configurations like raid0, raid1, etc. but the fastest one is raid0. In raid0 you can use the total capacity of your hdds and data will be splited by clusters into the hdds you mounted. Because of writing to these hdds at the same time, your data will be handled in less time. Hdd is the slowest part of memory+bus+cpu+hdd system (I dont count CD, usb memory etc.). More hdd means more speed but of course it is limited with raid system you have. And dont forget to backup your data files periodically (you should do that either way). If any of your hdd is damaged, it means your data files are lost because remaining datas on the other hdds will be useless. With power supply, backup and conscious usage there will be no problem. I am using in that way for one years and with no problem.
Regards.
