Esata Raid
Esata Raid
Want to setup RAID.. Where to find info?
Where can I get (easy to understand) info on setting up RAID arrays?
I have 4x 1TB HDD's.. that I want to setup in RAID config to give me a faster pc.
What is the better RAID array I should setup?
After I config BIOS.. do I install ATi RAID driver?.. Im unsure of what drivers to install first...
.. before installing W7 64bit.
I also have an ext. eSATA 2TB (1+1/RAID). How / can I setup my ext. eSATA RAID drive?
How does that work?.. 4x 1TB's (RAID) + 2x 1TB's (RAID) ext. eSATA ??
Any links on where to get good info would be grand.
Thanks.
Ok first, setting up RAID (depending on which configuration you use) does not necessarily speed up your PC and often makes it slower. For example, RAID configurations which provide redundancy will make multiple writes where a single drive would only require one, causing your computer to do twice as much work. RAID 0 provides the best performance but does not offer redundancy.
Here is a basic explanation of the most common RAID configs:

Here is a good step-by-step website on how to set up RAID.
