about the raid settings?

in the setup they ask you what size each stripe should be [according to the manual] so can anybody recommend me the size of each stripe for raid 0
thanks

A 64K stripe has always worked the best for me. You didn't mention which OS you're using, but if it's 98 or Me, I would go with the default. I've tried different stripe sizes up to 512K (recommended for Win2K), and found 64K to be the sweet spot as far as ATTO and HD Tach benchmarks are concerned.

When you format the stripe, I would recommend doing it like this...format c: /Z:64
The "/Z:64" switch sets the cluster size to 32K across the stripe. You can also use PM6.0 to format the partition, the benefit being that it takes a lot less time than using the "format" command.

This site has some good info on setting up a RAID array on a KK266-R, the difference being ...he prefers a 32K stripe.
