Performance Tips
Here are some tips that may optimize performance in a RAID 0 striped logical
drive. If you are using an audio/video-editing card, we also recommend reviewing
your A/V card’s documentation for additional information.
Use ROMB array as D: or other non-bootable drive in a striped logical drive.
For audio/video editing, keep the original system boot drive on the standard
IDE controller as C: drive. Partitioning software will see the logical drive as
one physical drive, D: or later. This action will prevent file fragmentation and
provide better accessibility to the logical drive.
Re-Configure PCI Latency Setting
The PCI Latency setting appears in some Motherboard BIOS. The setting
governs how much time is allocated to service each PCI slot. Promise
recommends a value of 64. An optimal value will vary from system to
system.
