Hi Nick.

    Thanks for the response to my last question. I have another for you.

    I just finished putting a system together with the RAID0 setup from my last question.  My OS is on a WD 1 TB Caviar. That drive is also being controlled by that same controller card ( the  3ware 9650 se ).

    Is it better to have the controller card control the RAID0 and the OS drive or should I just have the controller card just do the Raid setup?

     Thanks in advance,

     Larry

PS. Here is the specs for the system I just finished putting together:

    EVGA  X58 Classified 3SLI -  motherboard

    2- EVGA GTX 285 FTW 702MHz 2048MB

    Intel Core i7 Extreme 975 3.33GHz

    Themalright Extreme 120 cooler

    Mushkin Redline (3x2G) 6-6-5-18 DDR3

    Corsair 1000HX 1000W ps

    2- WD Velociraptors 3000HLFS in RAID0  ( FSX dedicated )

    1TB WD Caviar black HDD 7200 RPM 32M ( for OS and other stuff )

    3ware 9650SE - 4LPML raid controller

    3ware BBU for the 9650SE

    AuzenTech Forte PCI-e 7.1  soundcard

    Pioneer DVR-21 DBK DVD+ RW

    ABS Canyon 695 computer case

    Windows XP64 Professional SP2

    APC 1500VA smartup battery backup

        Some would say "a overkill", and they would probably be right. Others would say "more money than brains", and they too would probably be right.

     All is left now is the overclocking and installing the different software.
