8knxp & silicon vs ICH5R Raid
I initially connected my two drives in RAID 0 to the ICH5R with the F5
and they were recognized after I downloaded from Intel the updated driver and used it during windows XP install. I was experiencing some problems with one drive (at least the controller was telling I was), so I switched to the SI controller. It didn't recognize the RAID 0 and I had to reformat and restore from backup, so I assume going the other direction also won't work. "Ken" wrote in message . au... Ive got the 8KNXP with 2x seagate sata drives connected to the silicon serial ata ports. I have my hard drives in raid 0 configeration. I would like to see if i can connect my drives to the ICH5R raid serials instead. When i built my pc i couldnt get my drives to detect on the ICH5R ports with F5 bios. So i connected them to the silicon ports instead. I now have bios F6K and would like to see if i can get the drives to connect to them now Would i have to re build my raid to do that? My guess is yes. But would be great if i wont have to. Which raid out of those is better? Here im only getting 37,000 kb's in sandra hard drive file transfer test. I should be getting more than that. Before i was getting up to 65,000 kb's. But dont know why i cant get that now. I have installed the standard intel chipset drivers. I tried to install the intel raid drivers but can only find raid driver sets that support the ICH5R serial ports. Ken |
