10 disk set up and out of memory....

caretaker36 · 02-24-2008, 10:47 AM

I may be pushing mt luck here, but I need a high speed machine.
Set up is as fallows:
mobo is Intel DP35P, 4gb Corsair ram

I have one raid 10 (4x80gb Seagate stataII) of the mobo for system + apps, runnung a nice +/- 127 mb/s average

A second rais 10 (4x 320 Seagate sataII) runnibg of a RocketRais 2300 for data about the same speed as ohter raid10...

Here is the trouble, I added a second Rocket raid 2303 Pci-x and get a "out of memory" when the startup get's to that point. Both cards have latest and same bios. I have moved the cards around to see if that would solve the issue (not).

RocketRaid were quick to point to Intel, Intel well, as you can imagin, it is a third party issue :-)

btw, the third raid is to be a "0" made up of 2 Rapters to house the pagefile and Photoshop scratch disk.

My humble guess is that both cards are trying to reserve the same IRQ or the same memory block, busince I cant get the PC up and running with both cards in, it's guesswork.

Any help on this would be nice
