Question regarding Raid 0
Hey all, I just purchased a new DFI mobo with an Intel 3. 2E to replace my old PII 400 system. This new board (LanParty Pro 875B) comes with a bunch of extras. The one thing I see it has which I have never used is Raid 0.
Hey all,

The one thing I see it has which I have never used is Raid 0. What are the pros and cons of riad 0? Is it worth giving a shot? I know that it uses two drives as one, and from what I hear increases read/write time. Are there other things I should take into consideration?
Going from 400mhz to 3200mhz will be nice all by itself! Getting it tomorrow! bye bye pc133 ram and hello ddr400!

No, not yet, but like I mentioned in my previous post, I only use it on my gaming rig which at the most will have some current game save data is all
If you want to have data integrity/security in mind, then you want RAID 1(mirroring) at the very least, but RAID 5(striping/mirroring/parity) is the best option, but also the most expensive

LOL I always think of that commercial years ago on TV for RAID bug spray where the bug screams "RAID!!"
