I have a relatively old sata2 hitachi deskstar 500gb, and a fresh seagate barracuda 320gb. I also managed to snipe one of the C300 64gb shell shockers today. So with those 3 hard drives, what would be the best layout for a completely fresh windows copy? Windows/as many programs as possible on the SSD then raid1 for the other two? If I won't notice ANY real benefit to using raid1, I was thinking I would use raid0 for the extra data protection. I guess I just don't really know what to do here. I don't NEED the redundancy in a raid0, but if I won't see any benefit aside from more storage from no raid or raid1, I figure I may as well.
Anyone read this WoT and come up with any suggestions?
**Edit** Currently I'm only using the Hitachi, with about 200gb used up, so if you were wondering as far as layout/short stroking options, there ya go!
