i am considering buying a SATA drive, but I have a fear of it not working, or in order for it to work having me come down in my system overclock.
right now im running an NF3 board, an Epox 9NDA3J running at 278fsb.
this is the basic model, with only 2 SATA 150 ports.
I have noticed that some people say when overclocking, to run your SATA off ports 3 and 4, or 1 and 2 depending on the model.
since my board only has 2 ports to begin with, does that mean that I might have problems running a SATA drive on this board?
I would just hate to order something then not have it work, or me taking down my overclock. I would rather refund and take a restocking fee than bringing down my speed.
any other owners have their experiences?
