4 modules can run in dual channel...
about the RAID, is there any setup that gives you better performance than RAID 0? I've been thinking of getting a RAID 0 with 2 of these Newegg.com - Western Digital Caviar RE WD3200YS 320GB 7200 RPM 16MB Cache SATA 3.0Gb/s Hard Drive - OEM
But wouldn't 3 of those in RAID 0 be able to out-perform a raptor?
WD1500AD Raptor X-Tends Performance Lead | Tom's HardwareThe Raptor-X's performance is even good enough to beat a RAID 0 array consisting of two modern 7,200 RPM drives, except in terms of pure throughput, of course. In addition, it is nicer having only one drive to install, and the data safety of a single drive is better anyway. Speaking of safety, we should refer to the five year warranty, which should give you a good feeling.
They don't have any of the newest .10 Seagates in that article though and wouldn't a RAID of two or three seagates be less noise and temperature than that of one raptor?
