I have a Abit IP35 motherboard (with ICH9R SATA RAID supported) and 4 SATA hard drives connected to it, can I enable SATA RAID mode in BIOS, but just configure 2 hard drives as RAID 0 and use the other 2 hard drives as Non-RAID SATA mode?

I know it's a dumb question but I'm really concerning about the Abit board quality now: My question is: will the IP35 / IP35-E or even IP35 Pro be as reliable as those top boards from other manufacturers like Asus and Gigabyte? I'm asking this question because I just got my IP35 last week...

Thanks a lot renethx!

I guess it may not be too much a concern to most people here, nor do I know know if it's the right place to ask my question: I'm currently using Abit IP35, the RAID version, configured as a SATA RAID 5, thinking about the future RAID portability or even changing motherboard in the current...

So that means I must change the memory speed (CPU:RAM ratio) while I change the bus speed from 200 to 333 or higher? Currently, I set the bus speed to 333 and CPU:RAM ration to 1:1.20 so the memory speed is still about 800 MHz, is this how I should do?

Thank you very much hokiealumnus! I raised the memory voltage to 2.2v and set the bus to 333MHz, now it's 3G... One more question: should I keep the memory speed at 800MHz (CPU:RAM=1:1.2), or I can just leave it as default (then the memory speed will also be 1333MHz)?

Now I added the 2GB memory back, the PC can boot normally, and I can see 3.25GB memory... hopfully this is the memory voltage issue, I'll try to rise it to 2.2v.

Thanks for your quick reply! Here is the memory I use: http://shop1.outpost.com/product/5283387"><a target=_blank class=ftalter...om/product/5283387</a></a><a target=_blank class=ftalternatingbarlinklarge...

Got new Abit IP35 (Not IP35-E or IP35 Pro), E2160 retail and 4GB PATRIOT Extreme Performance DDR2 (2 * 2x1GB Kits) this afternoon, just installed 1 hour ago, but now problems come: - When having 4GB RAM installed, I cannot install Windows XP Pro, nor Vista Business (both 32 bit versions)...
