  • how identical do the disks have to be to run in raid0? and can i buy another hard drive and just set up the raid or do i have to reinstall the os?

  • @NsMs96 As Identical as possible. And you would have to reinstall the OS, yes.

  • Quick question if you dont mind. Would i be able to boot my OS from a single SSD and set another 2 hard drives as raid for recording fraps and storage?

  • @ComboBreakah Yes, just make the SSD the first boot device in the BIOS.

  • For some one who is so grammatically correct you should know its raid not raid array

  • Great info. thanks

  • Quick question, I'm thinking about getting an ASUS G53JW or a similar model. It has two hdd bays so I was wondering. If I bought an ssd as my OS drive and used a 500gb 7200 hdd as my storage for my games, would I be able to play them with this config. I read this laptop has no raid support so I'm not sure if what I want to do will work. Thanks in advance.

  • You Rock !!!

  • I setup my raid 0 via bios and raid setup but went I go to start Windows it stops a few seconds into the start up screen then flashes a blue error screen.

  • you're hot!
