Ya, most famous for it's Ayam Kapitan and Telur Bawang... tongue.gif
There's another good one called Hameedeya or something off Penang road, but very expensive. Another one is the one beside Masjid Kapitan Keling.

Back to business talk...
We do not have the demand for high end cards as in Lowyat. That is one of the major factor why it is hard to bring high end stuff in to Penang. This issue was discussed during TT yesterday, say if someone brings in some High End Iceage coolers, so how many penangites will buy, at most 5-10 forumers from LYN and maybe a few outsiders. So if 1 cooler earn RM20(which is almost the standard margin), so how are the sellers going to survive. That is why good stuff in Penang will always come thru back to back order, instant stock very rare.

Yeah, penang fellas first question always how much..then only ask spec wan..
Then they'll end up asking for some stupid spec like "that core something, cheap cheap mobo, 2gb ram, cap ayam power supply.." (some morons will even ask for pentium 4 shocking.gif )

Few months later PC always crash or PSU come out smoke they'll come complain, kan a sai computer shop..

Guys, want to ask your opinion. Is it worth it to use Raptor 74GB in RAID setup for PC Server?

Last time i remember reading an article about using RAID 0 setup on raptors... Makes almost no difference in performance.
But I'm not sure if it's a reliable source.

i think it's worthy to use raid 1 if ur data's are valuable.

RAID 0 is not worthwhile, unless its one very heavy usage server. Raptors are already good enough on their own for moderate to low usage servers. RAID 1 may be a better option, but you only get 50% of the space.

i always RAID 0 in my raptor and i got 130MB/S for average read speed.

but better safe than sorry,mirror is good choice than stripe if ur data is important.

but,for me,i rather use 2x320gb than 2x74 since their price is same and i'll prefer more space than speed for AV drool.gif

How about RAID 5 or RAID 1+0 for normal harddisc, it is more worth compare with 74 X2 Raptor?

That is the other Option too. According to kavin, that one more worth in term money rather than spend for 2 raptor.


Added on October 22, 2007, 4:23 pmPerformance wise, it is close to the Raptor.
