Southbridge speeds
I'm considering enhancing the performance of my existing system. I have an Opteron 175 on an ASUS A8N-VM CSM with a WD Raptor 150ADFD. I want to rebuild the system using the onboard RAID controller with three or four identical hard drives in RAID0 (not Raptors, but fast 7200rpm Seagates or WDs). I recognize that the access time will be adversely impacted using four drives, but most of what I do is based on high speed data transfer. I'm not into gaming, I just need fast I/O. My question is, based on the nVidia 6150/430 chipset, what is the fastest data transfer rate through the southbridge to the CPU? This would seem the gating factor in performance. That or the capacity of the RAID controller. Any comments? TIA and happy new year.
