Well if you try it then you will find out if the system runs better. ;)

Trying them out won't do any damage - try downloading the newest 4in1 drivers for Windows XP from the Epox website.

I notice you have 320 gig of seagate raided goodness??

I assume that means 4 x 80gig Cuda IV's?

I've been paying attention to the research Ovoskeuiks (sp) has been doing. And if you get in touch with Seagate they can swap the drives for "RAID Tuned" versions, which give a substantial performance increase.

If you already have ignore this post

Well I am stuck with a slightly strange 'Cuda 2 (15gb :/) and in SciSoft Sandra 2002 it told me I was getting about 10,000 to 11,000 score. I installed the latest VIA 4 in 1's and got 15,000.

I'm using XP Corp/Pro.

It DOES make a difference to mine, not sure how RAID would react, isnt that a whole other kettle of fish?
