I currently have a 74gbADFD raptor and i was wondering if its worth getting a second one for a raid 0 perfomance wise.

if you have data on there you can afford to lose then go for it. otherwise go for a larger drive for data.

Anandtech says that it ain't worth it http://www.anandtech.com/storage/showdoc.html?i=2101
I thought that RAID 0 does improve perfomance

I found this http://www.overclockers.com/articles1297/index03.asp

the guy is using a pair of the older GD versions. The difference perfomance wise seems impressive :eek:

Am thinking getting a second one I just would like to see some solid tests
