Hi, my name is Ares, and I have some motherboard issues. Thank you all in advance for any helpful suggestions.
I found some stuff on the IP35 Pro and raid, and most seem to be recommending going to a controller card.
I am looking at a pair of Seagate Barracuda 7200.10 ST3250410AS 250GB 7200 RPM 16MB Cache SATA 3.0Gb/s, my question after reading for three hours through threads in here, is that will the IP35 Pro be able to successfully run a Raid 0 system without a controller card?
If yes, will it be running a Raid 0 to it's full potential? If no, what mobo should I be looking at for a Raid 0 system?
The mobos I have been considering are the EVGA 780i, Abit IX38 Quad, Abit IP35 Pro, Asus Maximus Formula. Overclocking is important as is the Raid 0 support.
I will be moving from this system below and the specs for the new system follow it.
