ringfinger Posted August 16, 2005 Posted August 16, 2005 Anyone using a WD 74gb Raptor with a SATA controller that supports Tag Command Queuing with the drive? Just wondering what the performance gain is with TCQ enabled versus disabled. I'm about to buy a WD740GD for my new machine, I have the new Asus P5WD2 Premium board and am not sure if this baord supports TCQ. If anyone knows that as well that'd be great! Thanks.
ripken204 Posted August 17, 2005 Posted August 17, 2005 dont you need a drive that supports tcq? and the raptor doesnt
ringfinger Posted August 17, 2005 Author Posted August 17, 2005 (edited) Uhm... Yes, the raptor does support TCQ.... Here However, I don't think I'll be able to use it because I think I read somewhere that the new 955x chipset doesn't support it. Edited August 17, 2005 by ringfinger
ripken204 Posted August 17, 2005 Posted August 17, 2005 (edited) crap, i was thinking of native command quering, sorry Edited August 17, 2005 by ripken204
