SSD and Raid 0 Connection

[Coltimar]

I'm struggling to get my SSD to work out right, atm. I can't get my computer setup in AHCI mode My SSD is currently less smooth than my 7200 rmp raid0 array, lol.

Total overkill. If the only reason for the SSD is WoW then just get a cheap MLC SSD. I use my RiData 32GB and it works very well for 5-boxing.

its not only for wow but i do video,sound and graphic editing heavy programs.

did this happen after u tried the Raid 0 thingie like i am wondering about?
if so.. then i might think again about Raid 0 setup..

but when i get the SSD should i connect it to Sata 1 slot on my motherboard (if i dont want to use raid 0 )
then its ready to go?

Page describing RAID configurations, all of which require 2 or more hard drives.

I think you're mistaking the SATA port labeled "RAID 0" on the motherboard for RAID 0 configurations. You should have 2 or more ports in a cluster all labeled "RAID #" where # is 0, 1, 2, 3, etc. "RAID 0" on my machine is in the same SATA ports as normal (SATA 0 and SATA 2), I just have to configure it for RAID 0 mode in BIOS.

WARNING: Changing your drive from normal to RAID mode WILL destroy your partitions and all data on them!
