Hey guys,
I got 2 128GB Samsung 830 SSDs.
I'm not sure if I should keep them seperate or put them in a RAID0.
Some guys in the internet said that the speed increase from raiding SSDs is very small, but since my Mac Pro 4.1 only got SATAII built-in, I guess that's a different story?
I don't want to got via Velocity Solo X2, mainly because here in Switzerland it's not available. I'd have to go via Amercia, which doubles the price for me. And then I heard that going via PCIe increases the boot time.
I want to throw my system (boot disk) and app on it. Then, I want to make a little Bootcamp partition where I have (maybe) BF3 installed (to load maps faster and stuff...). 256GB are enough anyway.
I know that with RAID0 SSDs have a shorter life, but I have a backup and 3 years warranty anyway.
Help would be appreciated! Thx!
Alex
