ok I have been messing around with this stupid raid for a few weeks now, havent made any real progress either. So here is my setup:
asus m3a78-cm (RAID-0,1,10(updated bios) Windows 7 64 bit
8 gig ram
storage:
64 gig ssd with 2 30 gig partitions.
(3) TB hdd all sata
i bought a 2 port pcie sata 2 controller and am unable to see the device in order to install windows 7. SATA mode in BIOS is on btw.
it just will not recognize ssd connected on pcie(ftm64gl25h) to sata card when windows 7 installer finally gets started up. what can I buy?
***i am not doing full time heavy computing or gaming. occasionally doing some movie files but i have like 6 computers going so i dont need to be sitting in front of it watching the hourglass spin up and down.
i have a ssd drive and 3 tb drives. i can just stripe the 3 in windows 7. will i really notice that big of a difference with :
(2) 64GB SSD SLC on Asus Motherboard
and
(3-4) 1TB HDD 7200RPM on SATA 2 PCIE controller?
OS on SSD drive
Programs/Docs on HDD's
vs all on motherboard
vs any other way?
Thanks alot. this is the first time i have ever posted on a site asking a question.
