Building a new PC and just wondering if should go RAID 0 or use Microsofts built in method? I'll explain further

 

I'm going to have 2x 2tb M.2 drives in my system and I want to combine them. I like the idea of multiple drives but I want to consolidate them for one drive. I wont be saving important data on the drives so if a failure it's not a huge loss. Just want a combine 4tb whats my best options?

Use MS build in raid when you install the OS.

Since you only want to combine the drive, use spanned volume.

Otherwise if you looking for the benefit of RAID, go with stripe.
