As title, I've got two SATA drives one is a Samsung SpinPoint and the other is a Maxtor. Although they are both the same size (160GB) and both have 8MB cache they will obviously not be 100% identical in performance etc.

I just wanted to check what will happen if I set them up together in RAID 0. Am I likely to be OK, or could I run into problems?

Thanks for replies :)
 
Thanks for the replies.

I set up the array earlier today and it seems to be working fine.

I might run some benchmarks on it later, but so long as it works without issues which it so far seems to then I'm happy :)
