I'm very new to raid but I like it
Just a bunch of disks, it becomes a big mess fast... doesn't it?
And raid 5 is two raid0s mirrored with a spare in case of a failure?
I know that raid 0 is volatile but you probably should just treat it like any other drive.. drives fail.. so to me two as one is just one drive .. maybe think of that drive as being made by some off brand because it's half as trustworthy
Is it really 2ms difference in the seek time? That's significant!
