Hi Guys,
I currently have two IBM M1015's in my system, but i feel they do not cut the mustard.
I want the disks to go faster, and was wondering if I would benefit from a new controller, also I would like to add more drives to improve the speed.
I want to use it in my EVGA SR-2 so it obviously need to be compatible, I can't remember if the issues people were having with the LSI 9265's have been resolved?
Also, at what stage to we begin to saturate the PCIe bus x8, how many drives will it take? I currently have 12x Intel 520 120GB -ohhh and i will be replacing my seagates they were a quick cheap solution for some storage, but they do not feel solid. But thats another issue
What I am using system for is, content creation, Image editing, and large panoramas, file sizes can go into 10-20GB, but average file size of the images I shoot are usually around 60-100mb's.
Currently I have my system configured as in my signature, except i am stuck at 3Ghz with 96GB of ram, I also need to replace my ram to better ram so I can clock it back up to 4.3Ghz (with only 48Gb it was rock solid)
I would appreciate any help, thanks guys
