Okay I have two samsung 750 drives set up in raid 0 and partitioned as 250mb for operating system and the rest data under windows 7.
I have about 300gb of data.
Now my problem is I have just got my thirs 750gb drive back from warranty exchange and I was going to sell it but would get little for it so I thought about adding it to the raid array and having 3 drives.
The downside is that currently I have no means of backing up my data (I know, sad) so is there any way of adding the third drive without losing my data?
Or am I flogging a dead horse and I should either:
1. Just add the drive but not under raid and use it as my backup drive
2. Sell it and add some money and buy a nice ssd drive.
3. keep it for backup and add a ssd drive anyway
