Looking for RAID hareware solution

[fastman]

I see a few Raptors beening sold, so I'm thinking why not. My Mobo supports RAID but would rather go the hardware way. What's a decent not too expensive solution for this.

Thanks all.

Having a raid array will do little if anything to improve gaming and video encoding. If you want better encoding then get a better video card that can better handle it. Adding more RAM can also help speed things up.

But using your motherboards onboard raid control should be fine. No need to get a raid card unless your wanting a good raid 5 configuration.
