got it, we are using another standard Drobo as the backup, and that is kept offsite

Ok so I have come up with a solution that I have implemented. 1. 2x (2 x 3tb) WD green drives running in raid1 (mirrored) allowing for 2 actual partitions with mirroring 2. Using drobo pro as backup so if a set of drives fail at the same time, we are covered.

ok so the main issue for me moving forward is that when 4tb drives come out, i am going to want to use them, as by then it may be hard to find 3tb or 2tb drives.. and if one fails i dont want to be stuck looking for the same hdd. btw what is RAID-Z?

hahah yer i mean TB, i want to know tho, does raid5 allow different size

Oh, also i am wanting to mirror drives because if one fails, then i want to make sure data is not lost, also what sort of drives should i use, are WD Green 3gb drives ok?

First things first CCC is crap for the 7970, it holds clock speeds at 500mhz on auto mode, and rarely moves up.. not sure if this is a known issue, but it sucks. BTW BIG thanks to the guys who suggested MSI afterburner. After installing it, my clock speed stayed at a constant 925mhz. Ok so now...

not too sure mate, im gonna download fraps tonight.

As for the 6970, it was stock I never OC’d it, so I would assume it’s a little less than the 7970, also what are safe temps for the 7970, vitaminzed I noticed u have 2!
