Gigabyte x399 aorus pro user manual 2019. Even with that stupid charge for the key it's still cheaper to build an array with 4x Intel 600 drives than to buy the big single drive.You might say most people just need one 512GB drive but this is a 16-core monster suited for a combo of content creation and gaming so it needs better storage support. Or alternatively, spend a lot of extra time moving all of your files around on 3 different M.2 sticks with separate drive letters.It's unfortunate, since they could have scooped Intel, who haven't even launched the promised CPU-lane VROC RAID feature that was supposed to come with X299.Right now, Intel has NVMe RAID using the PCH-connected M.2 slots on the X270 and X299 and I suppose they will eventually get around to shipping VROC. 960 Pro 2TB for about $1300) rather than combining smaller, less expensive, slightly less performant M.2 sticks into RAID0. I think the clear issue is that there are a number of people who claim they will be doing professional workloads and x,y,z / a,b,c feature but have no intention or capability of pushing the envelope to necessitate it nor understand what bottlenecks are and how to evaluate them on a platform, nor have any clue as to what performance bump one thing gets over another.As you more pointedly stated, a high power enterprise DB solution uses software RAID as do many. And it's not over M.2 NVME which is a relatively new standard.
The Ultimate₃ also comes with a £15 reward and a free 10 year guarantee* when registered through Club Energy; where installers can also benefit from business tools including the Plumbing Toolbox app, Gas Safe Notifications, Benchmark and some great rewards

Not sure whether you need the Glow-worm Energy 30C or the Worcester Bosch Greenstar 30i?
If you want a reliable combi boiler for your small-to-medium sized Edinburgh home, you’re wise to be comparing the market, and looking at all your pricing options.
Glow-worm are popular for producing great value boilers without sacrificing too much on quality, and come with pretty good guarantees for a budget brand. Worcester Bosch on the other hand, are a premium brand with a premium price tag, and have the best reputation on the market right now.
It’s a toughie. So, let’s take a closer look at each other these two boiler options below.
Introduction
The Glow-worm Energy 30C is a reliable, modern-feel boiler with competitive heating and hot water outputs, for ultimate comfort in the home. It works with a variety of energy efficient controls so you can save even more money on your bills.
As for the Worcester Bosch Greenstar 30i, it’s currently one of the premium brand’s bestselling boilers, as its outputs are suited to the average UK household, together with a market-leading guarantee and long-lasting value. It can also be paired with some great Worcester Bosch controls, such as the Wave.
So, let’s see what happens when these two boilers go head-to-head…
Output and flow rates
The Glow-worm Energy 30C will supply 30kw to your heating, which is great for a small to medium-sized home or apartment with 8-12 radiators, whereas the 30.6kw hot water output is perfect for running a shower or bath, with a flow rate of 12.5 litres per minute to your taps.
With a heating output of 24kw, the Worcester Bosch Greenstar 30i is more suited to a 2 – 3 bedroom home with 6-10 radiators. The hot water output is very similar to the 30C’s, and you’ll find it can fill a bath or run a high pressure shower with no trouble, at 12.3 litres of water per minute to your taps.
So, if you don’t need the higher heating output the 30C brings (and there’s no point over-specifying), but still want the same great flow rate, then you could find the Worcester Bosch Greenstar 30i is just right for your home.
Size and special features
The Glow-worm Energy 30C measures in at 700mm x 390mm x 280mmand is a light, compact size, so you’ll find it will comfortably fit in your standard sized kitchen cupboard or Edinburgh press. In contrast, the Worcester Bosch Greenstar 30i is just that bit bigger, at 710mm x 400mm x 330mm.
NOTE: The 30i will NOT fit inside a kitchen cupboard, so if you really need the space, the 30C wins out in this department.
Guarantee
The Glow-worm Energy 30C comes with a free 5-year warranty when registered through Club Energy, and the company also has dedicated engineers to attend call-outs – which is quite unusual for a budget brand! This guarantee can also be extended for a price, so check with your engineer.
However, Worcester Bosch may just have the edge here, as you can take advantage of an 8-year no-quibble market leading guarantee when you buy the Greenstar 30i. However, the caveat to this is that you also have to install the brand’s own filter and controls on top of the already premium price.
