question about raid 0
« on: November 14, 2011, 04:07:09 PM »
so guy and gals. i have 2 identical 500gb hitachi harddrives ( cheap i know )
but i have an ssd to deal with booting and main operations.
i just want to decrease the loading time of games. if i raid them, would it work out better?

keep in mind my main storage isn't online all the time ( external )

I haven't dabbled in RAID in forever, however RAID 0 is imho on a AS NEEDED basis ONLY... if 1 drive or the mobo should fail, crapo smoke yuh pipe, keep that in mind.

From the past, serial data would see an improvement, if you transferring large amounts of data constantly, yes... normal everyday usage... not so much

it will generally perform faster, how much of a noticeable difference is up to the drive's speed and how much the game utilizing the drive
