Hi there,

I am about to create a RAID 0 array with 2 (two) WD6400AAKS hdd's on ASUS P5K-E WIFI/AP (ICHR9) motherboard..

The plan is to create 1st slice with 300gb and second 2nd slice with all remaining space.

Most of the data are small files with size ~5mb-6mb.

What stripe size should I chose in order to get the best all around performance? 64kb ? I am particularly interested in fastest possible boot times. The operating system shall be WinXP Pro.

Is it right that the smaller the stripe size the better the boot performance?
