GA-8KNXP and RAID Card
I am using a Highpoint 'Rocket 133 S' (non-raid) with my 8knxp and it works
great. The integrated Highpoint Raid controllers on several past motherboards have worked well. When Adaptec decided to release a hardware based ata133 raid card, they chose Highpoint chips to control it. So, no direct experience with their latest raid cards here, but a recommendation based on past experience with their products. "Maiso" wrote in message om... Hi: I want to install two 80GB Western Digital Special edsition Caviar 8MB Cache ATA 100 drives in a RAID 0 configuration on my 8KNXP MB. Understanding that so many people are complaining about the performance of the Onboard ITE GigaRaid controller not being good enough, I will like to buy a new PCI RAID controller card. I have only resarch the Promise Ultra TX2, and the two from Highpoint, Rocket RAID 100 and Rocket RAID 133. Can anybody give me some guidance on these Controller Cards or to any other one that exist and that is not too expensive. Any comments or recommendation about which one to buy will be really appreciated. If somebody has any Benchmark on them and want to give me the details, I will appreciate that too. Thanks for your help. P.S. Running Windows XP Pro, 2.8GHz 800FSB, 1GB Mushkin PC3200 DDRAM, SB Audigy 2, ATI Radeon 9500, Sony DRU-510A DVD R/W, Sony DVD ROM. |
