Ok i am adding new parts to my present system.
At present my boot drive is on windows 8.1 and consists of 2x 120gb ssds in RAID0.
I am adding an internal 2TB HDD.
I am also adding 2x250GB Samsung 850 evos in RAID0 and using that for windows 10. I want to dual boot until i am happy with windows 10 then will use small raid for something else.
1. I have 1502 bios, do i need to upgrade?
2. Do i just add the new ssds and then set them up as a bootable drive in bios?
3. Can i then just set whatever drive i want as first in boot order?
4. I want to later use two 1TB HDDs in RAID0 so that will mean 3 RAID0 setups. Which sata connectors on the motherboard should i use? Like should i use number 1-6 ??
5. I bought my system already pre assembled and my fans are noisy. They are attached to the case controllers. Do i swap them to the motherboard connections so i can use AISuite to sort them on quiet running until needed?
6. What is the best way to install windows. Do i just copy my iso onto a usb or do i need to set the usb up with software?
Could you answer each question in order so i don't get confused as im a bit of a noob lol.
My intended setup <---- is this possible or ok to do?Windows 10 Drive = 2xssds in RAID0
Windows 8.1 Drive = 2xssds in RAID0
Video encoding Drive = 2xhdds in RAID0
Main backup Drive = 1x 2TB hdd
Thank you all so very much for your help past,present and deffo future lol
