    I'm using 2 IDE Drives using AMI MegaRAID. There is nothing wrong with my RAID setting, everything works fine. and win2k sees the drive as a single C drive. My question was to ask if the defraging will move data from one drive to the other more. Anyway, thanks for your inputs guys.

    RAID0 and Defraging in WIN2k

    18.1" LCD Flat Panel for $999

    Ok guys. Thanks for your info. By the way, where did you get the monitor?PCMALL or ECOST? They both offer the same monitor for the same price. Ecost gives you free shipping I think. Is there any advantage of choosing one from the other?

    18.1" LCD Flat Panel for $999

    Hello RSM. I was just wondering the LCD has a response time of 50ms which translate to about 20fps. How is that good for playing DVDs when it's at 24fps. Also, the games that run at higher than 60fps: does it ruin the fun? Thanks.
