I just built a new Core i7 Extreme system with an ASUS P6T Deluxe MB, 6GB RAM, Nvidia GTX280 and 2x750GB 7200RPM hard drives. I'm having a problem with my drives in RAID. I have them set up as a RAID0 array. On the same controller I have my SATA optical drive. Vista grants every part of my computer a 5.9 in the Windows Experience Index thing, but my Hard drive as only a 3.0. I agree with that. My hard drive does seem slower. Its slower than it is in single drive, non-RAID mode. Why is that? Is it because my optical drive is on the same controller as the raid array so it gets confused or has compatibility issues? Right now I'm back to running as 2 separate hard drives because it's significantly faster. Can anyone help?
Thanks.
Thanks.
