Age Of Eon

How would I go about doing that? I've messed around with Disk Management but I've never tried to set up a software raid before. Anything I should look out for?

I don't currently have a backup setup, no. Since the drives themselves are decently fast and my 970 handles most of the grunt work, I'm mostly looking to consolidate for ease of use. I'd be fine sacrificing some storage space to cut down on the number of locations I can save things because it got a little out of hand before. If I were to throw the two M500s in Raid 0 how concerned should I be with having one die? Would it be fine to disconnect one to do PC work and reconnect it after so long as the system never received power?

This is my first time ever posting here so I apologize right off the bat if I'm missing something. I currently have 4 drives in my system and I would like to raid 2 or 3 of them depending on what's possible. I don't know if Raid required identical drives or if you can mix and match because that would determine if I can run all three I want to. I have a Samsung 970 Evo as my boot drive and main drive, two Micron M500s and one Micron M510. I would like to Raid all three Micron drives into one Raid configuration ideally but I would settle for just the two M500s. My MOBO has an integrated Raid controller but as I've never set up a raid configuration before I dont know how to set it up and Googling around didn't help much. It's an Asus Prime Z370-A II if anyone has the exact same board. How would I set up a Raid configuration with this board? Should I do Raid 1 or Raid 0? What stripe size should I go for? I have a million other questions but right now I'd just love to get on the right track.

I've been in the dark about this for a while and I figured I might as well join now and ask because it's starting to bother me. My system is currently an older one with an i7-4790, 16gb of DDR3, and a GTX 1080. I play competitive Overwatch at extremely high FPS at 1080p. I have almost all of my in-game settings on low and my FPS is generally hovering around 230ish when in a team fight. I have been considering upgrading to an i7-8700k and 16gb of DDR4 finally but I want to be sure that I actually need to. Other than Overwatch I don't play very many games. Sometimes some Rainbow 6: Seige but I'm almost exclusively an Overwatch player. I edit and render videos as a hobby but it's not that big of a problem for me right now with my current setup. What sort of gains should I expect to see with an 8700k? Should I even worry about it?
