what would you do, as far as raid ?

[bing]

gborrillo, I think you haven't mention what is your "typical" usage on this rig ? Is it just for gaming ? Media streaming ? Server for file ? or for database ? and etc.

This is important for us in "suggesting" the best combination for you instead of guessing.

Also the other important missing info is what type/model of Adaptec controller is that ? PCI ? PCIE ?

I didn't realize you're using an Adaptec controller.

Bing has an excellent point. For me Matrix RAID0/5 would be best. I'd just sell that Adaptec to help pay for the drives. Your needs may be different than mine, though, so we need some more input.
