kojack Posted January 22 Share Posted January 22 I am looking at swapping to the asus proart z490 board, for my i7 processor. It has 3 or 4 SSD ports onboard. Is there any benefit in running two of them in raid, anymore? Or are we past the point of noticing any difference?

Etern4l Posted January 22 Share Posted January 22 Do you have a use case where you copy very large files files often. It will be very noticeable then, but not otherwise.

kojack Posted January 24 Author Share Posted January 24 Not from the OS/programs drive. it would be from other drives to other drives.

Custom90gt Posted January 24 Share Posted January 24 You won't notice any real difference. Synthetic numbers will look faster, but access times will be slower. The one advantage is you would have a single larger drive and not have to deal with two drives. One downside is that you are increasing your points of failure. 4 1 Desktop | Intel i9-12900k | ASUS ROG Strix Z690-F | 2x16GB Oloy DDR5 @ 6400mhz CL32 | EVGA 3080 FTW3 Ultra | AW3821DW| 980 Pro 1TB PCIe 4.0 | All under water | Server | SM846 | Unraid 6.12.0-rc4.1 | AMD Epyc 7F52 | Supermicro H12SSL-I | Tesla P40 24GB | 256GB 3200MHz ECC 8-channel | 100+TB ZFS | Backup Server | SM826 | Unraid 6.12.0-rc4.1 | AMD Epyc 7302 | Supermicro H11SSL-I | Tesla P4 8GB | 256GB 2133MHz ECC 8-channel | 100+TB ZFS | Dell XPS 9510 | Intel i7-11800H | RTX 3050 Ti | 16GB 3200mhz | 1TB SX8200 | 1080P | Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
