[QUOTE="FAST6191, post: 7286696, member: 32303"] Raid 0 in your case would only give 500 gigs (less the usual formatting/partitioning/hard drive sizing). It would not be 1500 gigs of theoretically high performance. Equally many make a bigger deal about single hard drive failures in raid 0 than I reckon they should. It is certainly true that one drive going down (or even dropping out of the array) will lose data and theoretically more moving parts, more chance of failure but if you treat it as one hard drive it is not going to be too much different than any old hard drive failing. You know your way around a computer well enough if you are asking these questions. To that end what would probably speed you up the most is manually pointing the hard drive hogs at the appropriate drives. Put your torrent client on the other drive and leave windows by itself. That way it is only the other drive involved in downloading, checking, repairing, extracting and whatever else. If you are doing video make sure the source files are on one drive and the temp file/final render on the other. If you can preload things into RAM then maybe consider it, if you have enough memory to do a RAM drive then even better. For a system with unpredictable uses, or very specific uses a speed focused RAID can make sense. Likewise if you have money to burn when building a PC it is a more than cosmetic change, however for most I would just look at the hard drive hogs and think through things as you are doing it.
