douirc Posted September 17, 2006 Posted September 17, 2006 I'm preparing to setup 2 x 74GB 16MB raptors on my LP UT SLi-DR and was wondering which raid adapter to use. Is one faster than the other? more stable? I care more about performance than simplicity. Any suggestions? Thanks! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brother Esau Posted September 17, 2006 Posted September 17, 2006 The Nvidea controller is the fastest! Dont know about the sil controller as far as reliability but I know it only transfers at 1.5 gb vs the 3.0 on the Nvidea Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daddyjaxx Posted September 17, 2006 Posted September 17, 2006 The Nvidia controller connects directly to the chipset. The SIS has to use a BUS to communicate since it is a separate entity. The Nvidia is faster. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
