p8p67 and raid 0?

[AzNPinkTuv]

Can anyone comment on Raid support for p8p67 boards from Asus?

it says they are intel rapid tech whatever supported but does that mean it supports raid 0?

i plan on raiding 2 drives together that i have laying around for applications

It definitely supports RAID 0. I'd sayuse the Intel controller but 3GB/s ports (any of the 4 Blue ports) You don't want to lose the 6GB/s SATA (Grey) as it's better to reserve them for SSDs.

I've been asking this same question for the same reason.

I saw in another thread this review.

RAID is tested out on that Asus board which also lists as Intel RST supported but not RAID as a feature. I am assuming now that they in fact do have RAID.

Every motherboard that has the P67 chipset has RAID built in.

The Asus P67 boards all support RAID modes 0, 1, 5, and 10.

You will need the Intel RST (Rapid Storage Technology) drivers to use RAID on the series 6 PCH (P67). Version 10.0 (minimum) of the drivers are required, Intel has version 10.1 on their site.

Awesome! Thanks for coming out of hiding too!

I have a 3.1 PRO mobo with thr latest 2303 BIOS. I have also upgraded the Intel RST RAID drivers to 10.8.0.1003 (newest) The newer Intel drivers made my Crucial SSDs (on the 6GB/s ports) run perfectly, they were previously "getting lost" occasionally (metadata) BUT now my other
two RAID drives (WD 300GB Raptors) attached to the 3 GB/s Ports are "getting lost" (losing metadata).. The term "getting lost" means that the PC will freeze for a minute, then the RST software tells me that the drive on Port 4 is invalid and all data on that RAID pair dissapears. If I immediately shutdown and then reboot the WD RAID drives will come back.

This happens with great frequency and I have had to go back to a non RAID drive in lieu of the WDRaptors

I haveput the WD Raptors in another PC as RAID drives and they are flawless..

Anyone got any ideas?
