RAID faster than SATA?
I used to have RAID Stripe. Because I had some issues with Windows registry I hooked up my 2 Maxtor SATA Drives just with the SATA connection. Is my PC running slower now? PC Mark 2002 gave me a CPU 6700 points, with RAID I had 7600 points.
Is 2x 80Gig HDD with RAID 0 better (faster) than 1x160 SATA? Intel P4 3.0 GHz, ASUS P4C800E Deluxe. |

The raid striped will be faster than the single 160 sata, not heaps faster but it will be faster. The only advantage I can see with useing a single sata drive over a raid 0 is that it reduces the chance of loosing your data by 50%. As you more than likely know with raid 0 if you loose one drive all data is lost.
I am currently using 2 X 80G sata drives in a raid 0 and the benchmark results are way ahead of my 80G ide drive I use as a backup drive it's not funny
