It appears from what Neuromancer is saying that you will end up capped at about 400 mb/s with your Areca, if you use the ICH10R that is onboard for any modern intel board you will do significantly better.

That said I use a pair of the 30gb vertex drives for my os on an ICH10R sb.
3x74gb raptors up top and my 2 ssd's below both running on a 128k stripe.

If ya have the cash to spend i'd suggest the OCZ 120gb Vertex drives and use the ICH10R. If ya cant afford the 120's go with the 60's.

Yah the MTRONs Dom was raiding have significantly, lower read writes than the vertex. 2 will max out the aerca and 4-5 will max out hte 800MHz IOPS controller (Areca 1232?)

EDIT: wow very nice

ICH10R is pretty amazing really, after using many different RAID controllers it's the best I've ever used.

Those ones I submitted were on the areca 1230 raid card w/6 150gb Raptors (4 raptor x's and 2 o.g. raptor vanila's) No SSD's and done with apps running all over the place, just wanted to see how 6 raptors get owned by 2 ssds
