I have the P5W DH with two Seagate 7200.10 drives hooked up to SATA1 (red) and SATA3 (black) running an Intel matrix based RAID 1 mirror set.
In addition, I have a Plextor 755SA attached to SATA4(black)
I'd like to pick up two more seagate 7200.10 drives and make a RAID 10 (1+0).
I'm concerned about the layout. Which connectors should I use for the (4) 7200.10 Seagates and where's the best connect for the Plextor 755SA?
My guess is to add the 2 new drives to SATA4 and EZ_RAID1, and try to get the Plextor to run on the SATA_RAID1.
I'm unsure whether that's the correct layout to have the Intel Matrix controller support the 4 seagates while still having the plextor work. Is anyone else running a cross-controller RAID 10 with additional non-raid SATA devices?
