Thanks for the replies
I totally agree with using some branded Memory, I should of known to play it safe. I am also going to change the PSU to the Corsair CX-500 and the case to the Antec 900. AS you have said, I could get away with a 500W PSU and the case you suggested is proven to work, i don't want to risk using the antec 100. the 900 is only £20 more.
I have read it is better to copy the data across before using parity to get a faster write speed, is this correct?
I have updated my first post with the new hardware changes, any final thoughts?
Cant wait to get some serious storage on the go, thanks for the advice
Thanks Sam
