I am considering upgrading my Win7 install to SSD but have no idea what path to take. I already have a pair of raided Raptors for Win7 and a pair of WD Blacks raided for programs. If it were regular drives I know that I would be going raid0 but SSD's are different I guess. My questions about my purchase are, Will 2x 60 gig Vertex drives be as fast as a single 120 gig for an OS drive? Does either have any advantage over the other? I am only going to spend up to 300 for the upgrade and so the options that I listed only have one other possibility, the Intel 510 120 gig. They do make smaller 320 model drives but I am assuming that the 510 is their fastest because the 320's are only sata II's.
I am thinking that one of the single 120 gigs is probably the best option keeping my raided Raptors for a programs drive and splitting the 640 Blacks into seperate storage drives but again I am unsure as to whether lower acess is more important for SSD's or they also are better in raid0.
