So I have decided enter the matrix.
I have 2TB (in sig) HDD's. I am pretty sure that I had seen a "sweet spot" chart around the forums somewhere. It seems to have *poofed*. I do have a couple of concerns. This is a set of drives that is already up and running. I have finally gotten back to having all the setting where I want them after moving from Vista to 7(64 bit).
1) Is there any way that I can preserve the data on the disks while moving them into a RAID 0+1 config. I am pretty sure that I can not but, never hurts to ask.
2) Selecting a sweet spot. If I can find that chart then I will be set. I have run a suggested tester, HD Tune I think it was, but am having some issue discerning the "sweet spot".
3) For some reason I can't get past how the data will be stored on the RAID 1 portion and still be accessible by the R0. I do have the Intel Raid Matrix installed.
Hopefully I am asking some decently unique questions. If not please feel free to redirect me.
