Gigabyte GA-7VRXP Raid question

[DDad]

OK, so I've got this thing setup and running, seems very stabile (so far). About the only thing I'm disappointed with is the Raid setup.
I've got 2 WD 7200rpm 40 gbs, set up as masters on IDE 3 & 4- the fastrack has them setup as a 80 gb partition (raid 0). According to Sisoft Sandra, my HD scores are much slower than the same drive in my GA-7DX! (GA-7DX- 22350, GA-7VRXP 14300). I'm not just basing on Sandra- it feels slower!

According to all the information I've seen, I should have it all set to UDMA 5, with the latest drivers from Gigabyte for Windows XP. Fastrack is reporting everything as normal.
Is there something Ive missed?

Is there any data out there that you can compare your system to? Maybe their implementation is inefficient?

Not that I'm aware of- the only reviews I've seen don't mention any problems. Sandra reports it as being about 1/2 of other 7200 Raid systems, though.

I've got to be gone the rest of the week-if anyone else has any ideas-

Well, I'm back and have yet to come up with any answers on my own. Anyone out there have this board and can suggest anything I should try? I've RTFM several times, and so far nothing is jumping out at me
