I just ordered an ASRock X870 TAICHI CREATOR AM5 motherboard.
I haven't ordered any storage yet. I want 4X4TB Western Digital NVME drives in a RAID 10 array. What would be best? As two of the slots are Gen 4, should all four drives be the same, Gen4? Should all drives be the same make and model? I'll be running an AMD Ryzen??9 9950X, 64GB Corsair 6000 RAM and two EVGA 3090 GPUs with an as-yet undecided PSU. Thanks for any advice on the RAID 10 setup. |

Hi!
I've been on a RAID-0 setup for a few years (3x Samsung 970 Pro 1TB). Recently, I've bought an Intel Optane P5800X 400GB SSD, as my boot drive. I've deleted the RAID-0 array and I'm using my "regular" Samsung SSDs as separate partitions. My PC is more snappy now. My recommendation is: To buy a small, but very high end drive, as your boot drive (Intel Optane, or an SLC NAND based drive, like the Solidigm D7-P5810). Then, to buy an 8TB drive, like the Samsung 9100 Pro / MZ-VAP8T0CW). If you can afford such a setup, of course. Edited by NDRE28 - 54 minutes ago at 2:19pm |
