I am done building my computer now I was wanting to setup the hdds in RAID. I have read up some on this and wanted some opinions. The main reason I was wanting to do this was to help speed up performance for gaming.
After reading about Raid 0 I don't think I want to go that route. It sounds like if one drive fails you are basically in trouble. I don't want to have to backup everything every second I download.
Raid 1 seems like a better solution since it creates a backup and also improves performance.
This is the information I have gotten reading on various sites if its not correct please let me know.
I was curious if everyone thinks RAID is worth it or if I should just go with a normal setup? Also will the performance increase be that noticeable?
I also saw you need a floppy drive to install some drivers during the setup. Is there anyway to get around that like with a flash drive or any other way? Any information anyone can give would be appreciated.
