I have the following hardware spec:
Asus P4C800-E mobo
2x Raptor 76GB SATA drives
1x Western Digital 80GB SATA
Windows XP Pro
I'd like to set my Raptors up in a RAID 0 stripeset and retain my WD drive
using an IDE adaptor.
I'd like to segregate my OS/Apps from my data. I'm wondering, should the
OS/Apps go on the Raptor RAID array or the standalone WD? I can see the
cost/benefit of each approach - if the OS and apps are on the array, they
may operate faster, but all of the data that they would be accessing would
be on the slower standalone disk.
I use my computer primarily for software development (heavy Visual Studio,
IIS and SQL Server usage), and secondarily for gaming.
Appreciate any opinions.
