No preference nor need in the meanwhile. Still happy with my Raid 0 performance. I was just asking why was there so much difference in speed with Raid 1. Thanks for your answer!

Got a replacement F3, while re-installing stuff remembered to try out Raid 1 since I had never done it. Just for kicks and see how things work.

However the performance I've gotten was hideous as...

Just a quick question to which I haven't been able to find an answer with Google's help until now.

Since one of my hard-drives recently failed I've been keeping an eye on the S.M.A.R.T. logs. I've...

This thread as served its purpose! I'm nicely clarified!

I could say I would test the SSD with a newer platform but unless I happen to upgrade this computer before expected probably there will be...

I understand with all that has been said that things can be confusing. I'm not using the SSD raided. It is just a single disk. As at the moment I'm also just using a F3 as a data disk.

I cannot...

I've had the same system at the signature, albeit with different styles, for ages!

Still, if the disk when benchmarked is performing at top SATA II level how could the processor be limiting it?...

I'm very thankful for the help guys, but as I've said to Computurd, there is nothing wrong with my everyday system, listed 1st at the signature.

In my case, the SSD wasn't bought to bring some life into my system. I still don't feel need to upgrade and I'm estimating this will still be usefull to me for one more year. One F3 died, there...

Between these two hard drives, which would you choose? Do you reckon those small values in g-sense and calibration in one of the disks are to be frowned upon? The other has the power-on time greyed...

If only, Computurd, you had read more carefully. It's right in the post above you.

Those are exactly my thoughts and why I've created this thread. What is the best option between both, if there is even a best or regularly adopted option. I guess someone working with server raid...

Hope this isn't a dumbfounded question, but I haven't been able to found any details about such thing with Google's help.

In all the raid arrays that I've assembled there has been the care to use...

I've read earlier about doing that and I was precisely thinking about doing such just to get a better grip of how different things are. I'm using the SSD I got as an OS drive. I've also found what...

Nice. If only cost wasn't an issue assembling a raid array with SSDs. But even two of the cheapest drives around here cost as much as 4 conventional 500GB disks...

I'm asking because I am yet to encounter a post or a review with whom I share opinions. Everywhere, everyone says how amazing SSDs are and I can't really share so much enthusiasm. As I've said, they...

Building a raid 0 array based on SSDs, at their current price, is an expensive investment per GB. However conventional large capacity disks also have high prices at the moment. I'm not considering...

Much has been said and written about SSDs. As usual I've read as much as I could before joining the bandwagon, got an OCZ Vertex 3 recently.

I had been using Samsung F3's in a raid 0 array. One...

This thread might not be that useful, I don't really know. But I do reckon that if it existed it would have been helpful to me. So I imagine there are others out there who may fell the same way. I...

Disregard my last post. I don't know where my head was. Maybe I just wasn't sufficiently woken up.

It is working fine. The /x switch did the trick.

And thanks for the help!

I've done the...

Well, unfortunately, still a no go... It stills stops when faced the same question...

I'm trying to create a bat file so that I can run chkdsk on a drive with a single click. However there is a page file on the drive and even though I can overcome the first question about forcing the...

I recall seeing watercooled Ultra-D with high PWM temperatures, unfortunately i don't recall the exact values however i kept the impression they were able to withstand way higher temperatures... For...

Got the parts today! 4 VRs, two DPAKS and two "normal" (what is their name?). I figured that if i encounter any troubles fitting the smaller ones, I'll go ghetto style and solder a three legged VR....

When one doesn't know it's like he doesn't see... I noticed somekind of logo but never read ST, in fact i couldn't make anything logical of it in any position, and i have been fiddling with eeprom...

Thanks you very much for the help! How did you get to know that the chip is specifically made by ST?

I'll read the datasheet later today. I just have one more question before getting the part and...
