Brisk Posted January 5, 2005 Posted January 5, 2005 Hey, as the subject says basically, i can't have my 74gig raptor connected @ anything over 240FSB. I can't boot from it or have it as a 2nd HD. I have to use my PATA Maxtor if i want to go any further. This problem is annoying as my raptor makes such a difference to mpeg2 encoding / benchmarking apps etc. Brisk p.s. I've tried it on all 4 SATA channels. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
krose Posted January 5, 2005 Posted January 5, 2005 This is a known issue with the NF3 chipset. You must run SATA 3-4 if you want to run over 240. SATA 1-2 will not work over 240. Edit, Ah you have tried all 4 SATA channels. That is strange as I am running over 300 on SATA 3-4 with a RAID-0 array. When on 3 or 4 did you disable 1-2 in the BIOS?

Brisk Posted January 5, 2005 Posted January 5, 2005 I just looked and saw you with 2 raptors @ over 300FSB!! I must be doing something wrong. I didn't disable them, should i? Brisk Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
stowenrat Posted January 5, 2005 Posted January 5, 2005 You shouldn't disable them. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
krose Posted January 5, 2005 Posted January 5, 2005 Well here's what I did for a RAID-0 Win2K SP4 install. For RAID on SATA 3-4, you must have all SATA enabled at first. I enabled all SATA and RAID on SATA 3-4. I set up the RAID array and booted to the Win2K SP4 CD. F6 to install drivers, and when Setup was finished copying files and rebooted, I went into BIOS and disabled SATA 1-2. Rebooted and let Windows finish installation. This way SATA 1-2 were not detected and installed. I don't know if this makes a difference, but it works for me. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
