So i've got a Raid 0+1 setup across 2 sammy 500gb drives. Apart from bragging rights with HD Tune, i'm not overly impressed with the real world performance gains. The computer has to initialise the raid controller on bootup, and this makes the boot time slower than that of a normal single hdd setup. Games don't seem to load much quicker and i'm also struggling for space, so would like the 400gb which is currently being used as a mirror to actually store stuff on instead.
My plan was to use acronis and take a copy of my C Drive, then reinstate the image onto one of the wiped samsung drives. Obviously i'll take what i need off the sammy before wiping and recovering the image of the os.
What's the best way to go about it? I really don't want to mess about reinstalling the os because it's all setup perfectly.
