Hi have a question about RAID (striping) once you raid two western digital raptor h/drives 74 gigs, and then what would happen if after you ran a program like partion magic to partion that raid setup into two drives in other words from the one large c: drive split it in half making a d: drive ,what would happen would this defeat the perpose of raid to start with ?, or would it run just as fast ( or suposable faster)............ in a raid setup I know on a p4c800 deluxe mobo raiding two drives made te system slower when it came to using the computer for music , programs like logic , sound forge etc and the diferant plug in`s etc the system work much faster setting up the normal way. after heaps of tests we worked tha out !

and has any one tryed to raid this type of mobo from ASUS and actual Got faster performance? in a striping setup than the normal setup?
or is it a waste of time? any input would be very gratefull................

This does not belong in Highly Technical. If you wanted to know, in depth, how RAID works that would warrant posting in HT.
