Hi there,
I'm expecting my GA-EP45-DS5 to turn up tomorrow and I just wanted to gt a few things clear before I start rebuilding my system.
I have 4 identical 500gb sata hard drives that I wanted setup as a RAID 10 and be the location for my operating system. I then have 3 sata 1tb drives for storing data, 1 sata Blu-Ray drive and 1 IDE DVD/RW.
Would I be able to intall the four disks as 2 sets of stripes instead?
Am I right in thinking that the 4 500gb drives should be connected to the Gigabyte sata ports and the rest of my drives (except the IDE) to other the sata ports?
Also, the specification on the Gigabyte site states that this board takes a max of 16gb DDR but the manual states 8gb. Anyone know which one it is?
