Which raid drive and setup
I currently have two 80 gb Wd drives setup in raid-1 using the IDE --> SATA adapters that came with my NF7-S. I would like to upgrade to two 160 gb SATA drives. I was wondering what the majority of people use/suggest?
When I set this up, I need to copy some of the information on the current drives to the new ones, can I just remove the adapter and connect it with an IDE cable?
Is there something special I need to do for a large hard drive? I seem to remember something about a limit of 137gb that can be recognized before you have to do soemthing else. Thanks for the help.

In theory moving one of the raid-1 drives to the normal ide connection should work fine.
What brand of hard drive is like asking what color hair is best on a woman. Everyone has an opinion.
I am not partial to WD's except the raptors. Seagates are very quiet. The maxtor and hitachi's are very fast.
I tend to find myself buying maxtors mostly these days but the only make I avoid is the WD's.
