I have a Crucial M500 240GB SSD right now but am close to the total capacity and rather than ditching that one and getting a bigger SSD I thought why not just buy a second and Raid it but I'm pretty sure the M500 series are getting replaced by the MX100 series and by the time I need more space (for BF HardLine release) I don't think I will be able to get a brand new M500 240GB and the MX100 only comes in a 256GB. Can I still raid these two drives?

Yes, but the second will be limited by the performance of the worse.

note this is especially unreliable if you don't keep backups because the combined array will still only have the lifetime left on the original drive plus added failure of the new drive.

Error: 410

They have to be the EXACT same size or the size of both will be limited, but you can Raid0 different drives.
