Re: [SSD RAID-0] This will be so stupid fast! Anyone done this?
I abhor having to log on to any website.
Be aware many of those on 2cpu are using top of the line RAID cards, so depending on what the Gigabyte board has, you may not see as impressive of results. |

OK. From NiceEgg.

All that is meaningless, all that matters is:

| It means you could see some decent transfer rates with even a cheapie RAID controller. But if you're hoping for rates near the high end of what is shown in that thread above, you'll need to pay attention to what controllers are capable.
I easily get 200MB+ reads with my Arcea card and a SATA RAID5 array. |

Actually I am just hoping to decode the meaning of the graphic in the howie post
and
learn what just two SSD's in Raid-0 may achieve on
the GIGABYTE GA-EP45-UD3P LGA 775 Intel P45 ATX Intel Motherboard, which is how I plan to use them.

Sorry, I never used the ICH10R, so I can't help with that. But do keep in mind, what you want to know is how they might perform connected to that controller, the specific MB is much less relevant. |

That IS the exact question, well said (written).
So, how to gage this in advance, to whatever extent possible, please?
