I've just started using Adobe Premier Pro. I have a system that's optimized a bit more for Photoshop, but I figured the same hardware configuration should work well. It didn't. My setup is based on a Barton 2500+. I have three WD 120JB drives two in a RAID 0 connected to the motherboard's onboard RAID connectors (Highpoint 374). The other hard drive has been partitioned into a C: drive with Windows XP and all program files and a D: Drive where we store miscellaneous files and documents. The RAID setup has been partitioned into a 220GB partition for large video and ISO files and a 20GB partition for a scratch disk (Photoshop & Premiere).
When I try to capture video to the scratch disk it continually drops frames and is unable to capture usable video. With the increased data transfer rates, shouldn't it work better? When I capture to the d: drive, the problem disappears. Is it increased CPU utilization due to the RAID controller or what? Anyone?
