Dont bother if you are doing it with ATA/IDE drives. Anything near 100gigs or over will 95% fail in about 1-2 years and ATA/IDE just has horrible RAID hardware in general. You are better of getting Serial ATA because its just so much better or SCSI, and if you are doing a SCSI RAID, you will probably see better results by just using a faster harddrive, 15K+ RPM.


So using ata/ide drives in a raid would I see a difference in my video rendering or am I wasting my time.

My system is a amd xp 2200 cpu, 1 gig ddr ram

Want to speed it up but dont want to spend the money on a new box yet. Any suggestions ?
