Ok, I ran the program on SB600 controller.
Using my 80gb Deskstar it would not see the drive if the controller was in Raid mode.I seemed to remember that when I tried to use the Hitachi F tool to change drive settings,I had to change the controller to legacy instead of Raid mode.So I did that same thing using the Fitness program and it worked.
Lemme know if u want me to test on SIL controller.

Also I just bought those OCZ Reaper HPC 4GB PC8500 and they wont boot at 1066, just like the patriot memory I bought.
Is it the IMC on these X2 cores, the reason it wont boot at that speed?
Or can it be motherboard?

Well I fon't use onboard Raid so neither the SB600 or Silicon Image controller were set on Raid When testing! Funny thing is that WD Raptors are able to test on the SB600 Controller so I don't get it Yes please also test on Silicon Image controller as well

What you need to do is have 1/30/08 Bios or later and also Leave everything at auto and on Dram Config Page /Set to manual and leave the other settings all at AUTO then on Main Genie Bios Page set dram frequency to manual and set 1066 Divider

Also thw 1066 Divider will not work unless you have a Phenom CPU

I kinda figured that, but needed some 1 to reassure me b4 I rma one of these sets. oh well guess I will have to run them slower untill I get a k10.
Copying a cd at the moment, will test when done.
