Noobie question please help not sure what port to use for the third SSD? Purchased the 3 x SSD to replace 4 x Velocity Raptors. They were configured in Raid 0+1 7 Years ago. Total of 6 Intel Ports.
Have three Intel 730 Series SSD 1 x 240 GB and 2 x 480 Gb.
Intel X79 Serial ATA 6.0 Gb/s x 2 ports.
240 GB for the O.S., A.V. and some programs. 1 x 480 SSD for Flight Simulator X
Should the second 480 GB SSD (Used for FSX Add Ons) be connected to the Intel X79 Serial ATA 3.0 Gb/s x 4 ports or the AsMedia Serial ATA 6.0 Gb/s connector x 4 ports?
If the third 480 Gb is connected to the Intel 3.0 Gb/s will the performance be reduced?
IRST will not show the AsMedia Serial Port. Intel Tool Box does. Does the Asmedia Port support trim?
Will IRST improve performance with the SSD in ACHI Mode? IRST does not recognize AsMedia Ports.
Black Caviar 2 TB for Media files & Back Up. Connected to the Intel X79 Serial ATA 3.0 Gb/S Connectors.
Optic Drive None.
Reading in the forums here to disable the Asmedia ports for faster boot times. Still confused on the ports.
Thank You
