| | which SATA ports for GA-X58A-UD3R rev.2 I'm a newbie thru and thru, in need of advice. I have a GA-X58A-UD3R Rev.2 w/i7/12gb RAM and the following drives- 120gb Vertex2 SSD (w/Windows 7-64bit) 2-600gb DigiRaptors as RAID1 SATA DVD I originally plugged the SSD and DVD into GSATA2 and the RAID1 drives to GSATA3. I had BSOD once a week til I moved the SSD to SATA2 port. Where should I have these drives plugged in for best performance? Also, is there any difference between using SATA2 Port 4 and SATA2 Port 0? thanks everyone! |

| | Usually you will get better performance if your boot drive is connected to port 0 or 1. I'm not familiar with your board, but the Gsata is probably a Marvel controller and the other ports are native controllers. You will be much better off using a native sata port. That being said, I don't think you should BSOD no matter which port you connect it to. |
