Umm, no. And varying off the logical memory path can actually slow your machine down too. By that I mean 32, 64, 126, 256, 512, 1024, 2048. Apparenly most processors take longer to allocate data to odd memory than it would take for less memory.
or something like that  ____________________ Back on a Blade. Just feels so right. |

you cant have a RAID unless you've got more than two drives. One for half of the bits, one for the other half, and one for the parity bits.  ____________________ British beauty: Triumph Street Triple R; Loony stroker: KR1S; Track fun: GSXR750 L1; Commuter Missile: GSX-S1000F; Cheap project: CBR900RR FireBlade
