What RIAD setup do you use if any?

Did you see the difference when you switched over?

meh, my primary computer is a laptop.

I was using it on my old computer. It was a RAID0 (stripe set) 2 disks used as physical disk. After my RAID became corrupted and I couldn't get my data back, I've decided not to use it anymore..

I haven't noticed a big performance difference between RAID and non-RAID setup. I think the performance increases only 12% with the RAID0 setup (stripe set of course).

I saw a site that was talking about the performance etc, so I thought I would get some feed back from everyone. Wasn't sure if I was going to try it yet though.

I use RAID0 with my barracudas. I had one before and buy same one and sett up my raid. It's working perfect. Even upgraded my MBO bios and everything went fine for me. I never had any probs regarding corruptions or anything like that. I don't have any special HDD ,but I'm pleased how they work... Some things load much faster,specially if you don't have much sys memory. File transfer is also something faster and snappier

Hey Gorki, the file transfer, is that just in the raided drives? Or do they move faster into un raided drives also? I have been thinking about doing a RAID for just my OS and not my storage HDD's.

Yep that also, and copying from optical drives (DVD ROMS,etc) is also faster... I keep my OS and all other data on RAID I have enaugh space for OS and other stuff, movies,iso files... Everything works fine and smooth. I'm using Asus P5B Delux MBO with onbard raid controller.

I'm a long-time RAID user, too. Highly recommended. But remember: RAID != backup.
