Hi there,
I am currently running a GigaByte 8IHXP V2.1, with 2.4B CPU. I am utilizing the Promise raid controller.
I am very disappointed with the performance of the raid controller and PCI bridge.
When I attempt to capture video from JVC digital camcorder, it drops 10% to 40% of the frames! I know it's not my FireWire card, as I have tested this is a another computer and everything is fine.
So, I have two questions...
1) What is the best RDRAM PC800 based motherboard out there that has RAID
2) Will I need to rebuild the raid array which requires a format of the two drives when I upgrade?
Thanks in advance,
Rowan.
