Hi there,
I am about to purchase a new SSD for my recently built system. I have been using an old OCZ Vertex 2 SSD (285/275mbps) and intend on buying a Corsair Force GT SSD (555/515mbps).
My intention is to buy 2x Corsair Force GT 120gb and RAID0 them.
However I cannot afford two at the moment and wish to purchase just 1 to start off. If I RAID0 the new Force GT SSD with the old Vertex 2 SSD, would I see increases in performance?
That is, would the Vertex 2 hold the Force GT back or would they increase but not to 100% of the added speeds like 2x Force GTs (ie. 5XX + 5XX = ~10XX).
Would I get 555+285=840mbps read speed (theoretically) out of the two drives? Would they increase but not that much (ie. 650mbps read)? Would I see a decrease in performance to just using the Force GT (ie. 400mbps)?
The Vertex 2 is about 18 months old.
Thanks.
