Hi,
I'm currently building a new PC that will need high write speed on the HDD's.
Currently thinking of the storage below.
OS/Applications
120Gb SSD SATA3 (exact model I'll decide on later) plugged into a SATA3 port.
Local Storage
3x 2TB SATA3 RAID 0 array.
Now my question is; should i "waste" using three more SATA3 ports on my motherboard with these mechanical HDD's? Surely they wouldn't be able to fully utilise that bandwidth, thus they should sit on my SATA2 ports, regardless of their own interface speed?
Any suggestions welcome.
