i still dont beleive much in RAID0, you guys always make claims about how it is always faster than a single drive. but you never add in the fact that it is only faster in terms of the sustained transfer speed. the random access time actually drops a little bit. in my case with my 2x320gb 7200.10's, my random access time dropped 2-3ms. now i have 2x150GB raptors not in RAID0, access time is what i need, not a high transfer speed. most people dont work with large files daily, meaning that RAID0 is somewhay pointless for most people. if you can justify RAID0 then be all means use it, it will most likely help you alot, but for many it is pointless.
