IDE configuration question - adding a DVD burner: Currently I have a single 40GB HD on IDE 1 and a DVD ROM drive on IDE 2. Should I my put my new burner on 1 or on 2? I recall some years ago reading in these forums that if you put a slow device on the same IDE channel as a fast device then you limit the IDE speed to the slower of the two. Is this still true on modern MoBo's - in particular the P4P800? I'd like to put my new burner on IDE 1, along with the HD, so that I can use both IDE channels for copying from the DVD ROM (shh!) - unless, of course it would slow down my HD.

Im putting together a PC for a customer and ran into a possible problem.
Will Zalman CNPS7000A-Cu fit on P4P800-Deluxe (standard NB heatsink)?
I'm running that HS/F on a P4P800. Not deluxe, but same NB. Zalman lists the MoBos that are not compatible here, and none of the the P4P800 line is not on the list. The large HS does come right out to the edge of the board, so just make sure you have a tall enough case that the PS doesn't overlap the MoBo. Don't see your case listsed. I'm using the Antec SLK3700AMB (available for $32 w/o PS here - just select no PS at the bottom) - plenty of clearance.Originally posted by: Cyberlord

No problem. Am doing just that. I haven't quantified it and I haven't used Photoshop, but RAID-0 does seem to make a significant difference in how fast progs load - especially in booting or waking up from hybernation. It will also give you better performance if you're working with huge files, as you might in Photoshop. I mitigate the additional risk (two disks are more likely to break than one) by backing up to my ATA drive.Originally posted by: lktlkw
Hi...
Can SATA RAID be use at the same time as ATA? I have a couple of ATA drives and would like to use them in conjunction with a RAID-0 config. Any "real-world" performance gain for using RAID-0 with Photoshop?
MB is the: P4P800
Thanks!!
