2x Maxtor MaXLine Pro 500
RAID 0, 128 MB Stripe, ICH8R
I just purchased a 3ed MaXLine Pro 500. I am trying to decide if I should go with a 3 drive RAID 0 or a RAID 5. Would I get a big performance decrease with a RAID 5 ?

2 x 300gig Seagates RAID 0 Only using 40gigs from each drive.
i.e. 80Gig OS Drive RAID 0
Seagate Barracuda 7200.11 ST31000340AS 1TB
This drive performs much better than a stack of different makes 250 GB drives I have. Most average about 50 MB/s TR.
I just downloaded HD Tune after seeing the thread. I have been using HD Tach. I like Tune better because I get almost the same results every time I run it.
