I need some help selecting a primary data config for OS/programs for a new Solid Edge/GibbsCAM workstation build (3D drafting, design, CNC programming). I need performance not redundancy, but really do not want to use RAID0.
I have no personal experience with SSDs, but am considering them for this build - I am concerned about TRIM...
My original plan was to use an Adaptec 5405 SAS controller and 15K rpm SAS disks.
Components:
Intel Core i7-920
Giga-byte GA-EX58-UD5
12GB of Corsair XMS3 DDR3 1600
PNY Quadro FX 3800
Windows 7 Pro (x64)
SolidEdge ST2
GibbsCAM 2009
VMWare 7 for old PC images
