“striped Raid” Set Up For Sample Libraries Options

[Milca]

Hey guys
I’m planning to buy dual bay “hot-swap” enclosure SeriTek/1EN2
http://www.firmtek.com/seritek/seritek-1en2 with PCI - X card
SeriTek/1VE2+2

and I want to try to take an advantage of raid 0 set up( two internal SATA HD - probably maxtor or hitachi around 200 GB) and with this issue I’m posting those questions - hopefully there is somebody with answers - otherwise I will have to research that stuff forever.

1) Let’s say that I have Kontakt 2 library on one hand and and couple of sample libraries on the other - would it be better to use
a) Kontakt 2 on one hard drive ( of my two bay enclosure) and other
libraries on the other HD. or
b) Strip my libraries libraries across two drives ?(maybe with us of partitions)

2)This question is more of a general kind about stripped RAID

I know that lot of people take advantage of stripped RAID set up but this particular article
http://faq.storagereview.com/tiki-index.ph...gleDriveVsRaid0

has made some doubts whether I should even bother with this set up .
Anybody has some experience with using RAID 0?

3) For those who supports this set up where would be smarter to use it ( if you have a one choice)
a) On two sample libraries drives ?
b) On two audio drives ?
c) Or on two boot drives ?

If you guys have any experience with that i would really appreciate your answers,Hopefully other people find it useful as well.
Thanks for your time
Milan

It is, there's no better moderation than self moderation

One question, the most possibly restrictive, one thread, and everything is clearer. Thumbs up, you rock!

To get back on your set up, it's a viable one.
