 RAID setups - smokie
I thought RAID 1 would give me the double the capacity of the smaller drive with much better performance?

I think SSDs will nearly always outperform mechanical drives at the home PC level.

Anyway I'm off that for a bit - found an old analogue monitor and some cables etc in the loft and now going for a dual screen setup. Doesn't seem to work though. I'm using a dual port nVidia card which recognises it has something else plugged in. nVidia software even reports an analogue display on 2. Then a DVI to VGA converter, into a VGA cable then into the old monitor. Old monitor powers up then goes off, maybe it does that when it gets no signal. I don't think it was bust when it went into the loft so I reckon the cabling arrangement is suspect.
