hi people from tom´s hardware, the best hardware site
I have some question about raid, and I hope you can help me with them
1) is raid 0 better than a raptor 10k rpm drive?
2) all info about raid 0 state that raid 0 can have problems with security (I mean, when one hd fails, the whole system fails). but my question is, is this problem given by the fact that statistically speaking is more likely that one drive fails because I have 2 drivers? or the fact that I am using raid 0 adds error posibility to the formula? (what I mean is if the error is the same error of me having 2 hard drives non raid but taking as a bad result if one of them fails, or by working in raid, because of the way raid works, can add more error)
3) the difference in raid 0 between software raid and hard drive raid is a lot? in % how much would it be?
thank you very much
