Adventures in hardware RAID, take 3
Using hardware RAID on the motherboard with a pair of SATA drives, coupled with a regular PATA drive for boot seems to work great. According to HD Tach, both drives read at 60-70 megs/second, with PATA bursting for 90 megs/second, and the raid bursting for 240 megs/second.
I'm going to call this puppy done. Now I just need to copy everything over and install all of the software I want running. Like I said before, a new installation of XP is fast (about 20 seconds from BIOS to the hard drive done reading).
