Hey all, I just ordered a Promise FastTrak 100 and will be setting up a RAID 0 array with two 40 GB Western Digital WD400BB drives. Just curious as to your experiences with it. Do you like it, how is the performance, CPU utilization, boot time?
Also, I haven't given much thought about how I am to go about this but, as of now I have a Promise ATA100 controller and 40 GB WD. What do you think the easiest way to get up and running with the FastTrak would be. I was going to just image my drive as it is now, then install the RAID 0 array, and the re-image it back. This brings up the question, will Windows 2000 be alright with this, or am I going to have to do a fresh install of 2000? I can't install the drivers for a piece of hardware that isn't there yet? Thanks. and please email me at the address below...Eric
