Hi
I am planning to buy an ABit AN8 Ultra. I want to build a cheap reliable machine which is quick at Photoshop CS2 work.
ABit AN8 Ultra 2x 512MB DDR400 CL2.5 Corsair Memory Radeon X800GT 256MB graphics card (for a bit of Battlefield 2!)
And this is where I get stuck. I have read everyones comments on SATAII not being a standard but the group that is developing SATA improvement.
I was thinking of getting a 10000 Raptor for the C: drive OS and a Samsung Spinpoint P120 SATAII drive for storing and working with images.
I have tried to read up on it but cant seem to get my head around it. The ABit site says the AN8 supports SATA 300Mbps RAID. Does this mean it will support the Samsung Spinpoint at full 'SATAII' speed with native command queuing etc?
Does SATA 300Mbps RAID mean I have to set up a raid in order to get the full support?
Can I run the Raptor as SATA1 and the Spinpoint as SATAII at the same time?
Totally confused! .
