You can get a cheap one from EBuyer, or your local Maplins Electronics. Neither of them use the Highpoint 370 chip, which is about as much as I know about them.Athlon XP-64/3200, 1gb PC3200, 512mb Radeon X1950Pro AGP, Dell 2005fwp, Logitech G5, IBM model M. -
if i already have a 40gig and can get a 60 gig fron the same manufacturer and range then can i put these into raid 0 i dont mind if they only are seen as a single 80 gig(ie lose 20 gig)?is a flower best picked in it's prime or greater withered away by time?

Pretty sure you can do this. Though 20 GB is quite a bit of space lost.Originally posted by borat

You definitely lose the 20 gig. If the drives are really mismatched on performance or specs you might get slower performance and the occassional glitch.How can you possibly take anything seriously?

You can do it. You'll probably have to set up the drives yourself so that they have equally sized partitions.Gigabyte P35-DS3L with a Q6600, 2GB Kingston HyperX (after *3* bad pairs of Crucial Ballistix 1066), Galaxy 8800GT 512MB, SB X-Fi, some drives, and a Dell 2005fpw. Running WinXP.Comment
