Hi there,
I'm just wanting to know if anyone has any insight in to which set up might be the fastest (read and write speeds).

Set up 1; 500Gb HDD SATA 3 (6Gb/s), plugged into SATA 3 port

Set up 2; 2x1Tb HDD SATA 2 (3Gb/s), both plugged into SATA 2 ports running in RAID 0 using windows 7.

Both set ups are in the same motherboard (MSI P67-GD53(B3)), with win 7 running on a 60Gb SSD (SATA 2 (3Gb/s)).

Any thoughts on the set ups would be appreciated.
 
thanks for all the replies, I'm aware of the risk that if one drive fails they both fail, but I keep all my photos and music and films on other HDD, so it's just my steam/DVD games that will be on it.

The 500Gb HDD was the one I got when I build my PC (Julyish) just to keep costs down, but that quickly filled up and by that point the HDD drives rocketed! But eventualy decided that with xmass and steam sales I needed th extra space now and not half way through next year!
