Hi guys!
I built my own computer 5-6 years ago and think I'm going to sell it and build another. I should be better at it this time I hope .
What I am curious about are SSDs and RAID configuration. I initially wanted to get a SSD to put the OS on and then 2 1TB HDDs for storage, using the SSD to simply boot the OS.
The master plan was to a) set all of it up in a RAID5 configuration or b) set up the 2 1TB HDDs in RAID1 and use the SSD to boot. I'm new to SSDs and RAID and am not even sure SSD can be set up in RAID.
This will be mainly for media, gaming, audio recording/mixing.
Just hoped someone with some experience would read this and give me some input so I don't jump in blind like I did the first time lol.
Thanks!
