Raid 0 Hardware :banana::banana::banana::banana: :)

[Speederlander]

I saw you left me a PM Speeder but I have been unable to even see them because of an data base error.

But I think your question was if I had heard anything back, and saddly no I have not.

Actually I was going to ask you how the RAID 0 array "felt" in daily use. Is it a vast improvement or is the improvement limited to a few specific tasks?

I'm trying to decide on 2+ SSD drives in RAID 0 or one drive for OS + apps and leave it at that. The cost difference between the two is, obviously, very large. So is the improvement worth the extra $1600 it would cost for a controller plus the second drive? That $1600 can go to a lot of other hardware if it isn't going to this. Additionally, I could save even more and funnel that money if I went velociraptor for OS + apps. But I am willing to spend the money if the benefit is really that vast. I'm not yet convinced it is.
