RAID And You (A Guide To RAID-0/1/5/6/xx)

[Osterman]

Hello everyone!
I hope to be in the right place to ask.
I'm bound to make my first raid configuration, but I have one enormous doubt.
The last time that the idea of making a raid came to my mind, I thought about a raid 0 for the os and variety of software in order to improve performance.
But because I also like OCing, many people, in that moment, claimed that the raid setup could be affected and even get broken because of an unstable OC.

This keep being the same with the new P67 motherboards?
I have an Asus maximus IV extreme and towards the OC, I wanted to set up a raid 0.

What you think?

As long as its for over clocking, if you have important stuff you CAN NOT afford to lose, put it on a separate hard drive. Then if you loss the RAID-0 you wont lose the important info........Not sure why but above a certain point Asus boards seem to lose the hard drives when overclocking, like on the RIVE board, plus its not sata 6 like they said it was when it was new. I have a broken raid currently, it still booots but in the bios when booting the Intel controller shows one of the discs as bad.
