ok, I have a few questions:
-I've got a Windows XP pro system (don't have money right now to get 7 x64) and Just got 2 X-25V drives, and have them in a raid 0 array (128k stripe, diskpart align=1024 offset- like one of about...a half billion different configs)
latest intel RST reads one drive as internal, the other as external (asus P5Q pro board) my numbers seem to be similar to others (I'll have to do a bench run after my current render is done..so..about 2 more days, lol)

but what can people reccomend for things for me to try to change (other than upgrading to win7)?
-I had a huge pain getting an nlited install to work properly, once im done school for the summer I'll be able to have some time to actually tweak out the pre-install
what I've done so far:
-I've disabled defrag (actually removed it from the install environment), moved pagefile off to my HDD, disabled indexing, prefetch, etc
-updated firmware on both drives (newest firmware- did it first thing)
-BIOS is set to RAID, although, my BIOS revision is relatively old now, I'll upgrade it later as well
-set it to a ~56GB partition in the 128k stripe RAID0

any and all help would be appreciated.
and again, I'll post benchmarks (as the drives stand now, once the current render is complete- I'm doing a test to see if the SSDs do make any real difference on render times in REVIT)
