I would like to set up an ATA/100 RAID for a 3D animation system...cost is not as much a factor as cost vs. performance. since i'm spending a ton on a wildcat card and 24" monitor i only have about $1,000 left for a RAID and that pretty much rules out SCSI. what's is the best ata/100 drive and controller out there? is ibm deskstar75gxp the way to go? i was thinking going amd with the mobo, is the abit kt7 raid highpoint controller good enough? i'm new to setting up a raid so any advice would help out greatly.
also, can someone please explain to me the different configurations of raid (newbie question, sorry!) and are they easy to setup? any advice would be greatly appreciated. thanks!
