What should I do? Grab a sumsung 840 evo 500gb with no raid 0 or get two samsung 840 evos and run them in raid 0? I know I lose reliability but I'm not too worried about that.

You don't lose reliability, but if one drive fails, both do.

Yea, that's what i meant by losing reliability. Should've clarified.

Also, if one fails you can still re-install on one and keep going with your rig, if you have one ssd and that one ssd blows you're dead in the water till you buy a new one.

 

----- for the scare mongers ----

 

Not sure how everyone's scare tactics of a RAID 0 array of two disks being double-ly bad because if one fails you lose everything when with one disk if it goes not only are your without your computer but you're without a drive, with two in RAID 0 if one fails you can still do a lesser install on the remaining drive and have some fun.

I roll with sigs off so I have no idea what you're advertising.

 

This is NOT the signature you are looking for.
