Finally got my computer up and running, think I have my raid 0 setup on 2 500GB HDDs correctly, does this HDTach seem about right? As well it's showing the full 1TB size in My Computer, shouldn't it only be showing the size of one drive with a raid 0 setup? Thanks

Open the Matrix Storage Manager application, right click on your RAID array and enable "Write Back Cache". It'll increase your performance.
Your RAID 0 array is 1gb so why should it show half of it? It's being seen as just one volume.


I have a question of my own. I'm currently at 9x400 at 1.35v vcore with vdrop pencil mod on the board, as described on the OP. Works great
It's perfectly stable and when I get back from work I'm going to continue pushing it.

However since I attached my older drives it takes a much longer time to get past the hardware detection screen. The system stalls after finding my USB mouse, which is after the memory detection. I hear one of my drives do a little work and no matter what I change in the bios it always does this. The stall takes about 20 seconds. I also tried playing with the ATA(PI) detection time but that doesn't change anything, like I said.

Yup that sure boosted it, thanks!
