Hi Guys,
Just bought a cheapo Lycom Raid controller and two 60gb Vertex 2E's, only to realise my PCI-E X1 slot's on my Abit IP35-E won't give the drives the data quick enough for them to even run as quick as a single drive (I'm only hitting 170mbps read and write which is obviously nowhere near what it should be).
Can anyone suggest an alternate solution apart from buying a new motherboard? Would something like this work?
