@bogellenong I got a kingston hyper x 120gb ssd. and my god it's so much faster than my older computer, you just notice little things which become so much faster and gaming such as skyrim each loading screen is like 2 seconds long... I really do recommend it ^^ im getting a 2nd one soon :P Check out my channel for my build

@devilwitzblu you can, but there is no point for it. the speed of the array, is just double the speed of the HDD, which is a waste for the ssd. Furthermore, the total capacity of the array = 2 * the capacity of the smallest disk, which is the ssd in this case
