CyberGenX 0 Posted August 21, 2002 About to upgrade to the MSI KT333 Ultra 2 with RAID. Going to be using two 40 GIG drives and RAID 0. Can anyone give me to do's or shortcuts or info. on any thing I should know compat. wise.??? I know how to do it, just haven't in a year or so, wondered if it has gotten easier.

Avalanche 0 Posted August 22, 2002 That mobo has a Promise controller correct? If it does, then things haven't really changed, still have to install the RAID driver on setup. Not as easy as with a highpoint controller, also not terribly difficult either. I've become a big fan of MSI boards of late. Besides my system I've built several systems with them, and they are great, I just wish they would stop using Promise controllers. Asus is the same. It is well known that the highpoint controllers are better, especially for setup, and they offer straight IDE controller functionallity, ie, you don't need to configure the drives in an array to use them if you don't want to. Sorry for the rant, I guess the answer is, no, nothing's really changed since you set up RAID a year ago. At least not as far as I've seen. I could be altogether wrong here.

Brian Frank 0 Posted August 23, 2002 Yeah, the Promise controllers are still pretty castrated unfortunately. Share this post Link to post
