I do NOT recommend running RAID 0 for SSDs on one of those cards. They are rather expensive, though, but they could, with fast SSD's, provide up to around 3-4x the speed of a single drive in a single normal drive sled.


The former holds a single drive, while the latter holds two. One popular choice has been the "Apricorn Velocity X2" or the "Duo" version (not X1, which is slower). This would be in a PCI card, I presume, and not two drives in two normal drive bays? Otherwise, I don't see how you are getting such a dramatic (more than 2x) performance increase - that should not be possible.įor the OP: A typical upgrade scenario from normal drive bays would be a PCI-E card. I'm sorry, but I'm skeptical about the RAID result.
