My motherboard has the i875p. So it has the ICH5, I think that's what it's called. That has two S-ATA channels on it.
Although the board also has a Silicon Image controller too, and that has 4 more S-ATA channels on it. The Silicon Image controller is the same size as ICH5 or larger.
what are the differences between them?
As of now I have a Raptor that uses S-ATA, and a DVD/CDRW that uses S-ATA also. Then I have a normal P-ATA 250gb that will be going on IDE1.
So which one do you think is better? Should I put the Raptor on one and the DVD on another?
