Hi There - some input for previous posts.. I think the reading of the drive temperatures is not supported when the drives are in RAID configurations - a function of the driver S/W I expect... (I cannot see the RAID drive temperatures with any tools I have used). NICI : Which drivers are you using fo...

Hi There, I thought I'd follow up on my original post with an update on the use of 4 x Samsung SP2504C 250G SataII drives in a Nvidia RAID configuration. I finally managed to get the optimum settings : My setup is * Gigabyte K8N Ultra 9, Socket 939 Nividia NForce 4 chipset * AMD 3000+ Venice SKT 939...

Hi There, Thanks heaps for the information and links!! I would have spent ages trying to find that out myself. I tried the modified bios with Nvraid 4.84 in my GA-K8N-Ultra-9 MB and it works, ie boots, and the O/S runs fine, but there was no improvement in the 4 x Samsung SATA striping throughput so...

I had wondered why I didn't get much of a performance boost from 4 x drives in RAID 0. I am using the latest NVidia drivers (6.66). I also tried the silicon image controller and got a similar result (ie flat) but with 20MB/s less throughput. Hopefully it is not a CPU / motherboard limitation?. I am ...

Hi There, I thought some people might be interested to see the results of using 4 x Samsung SP2504C SATA II 250G hard disks in various RAID configurations on a Gigabyte K8N Ultra 9 NForce 4, AMD64 3000, Win XP and the latest NVidia drivers. The mother board also had a Silicon Image SiI3114 RAID cont...
