Hello LTT forum.

SSD's are awesome and young me jumped on the hype train a while back. I bought a Corsair Force 3 60GB, which, back then, costed me €120. Now that I have saved up some more money I'm looking for an upgrade because.... You know... 60 GB... Not the greatest...

Anyways the SSD still works fine so throwing it away is NOT an option. I was thinking of buying myself 2 Corsair LS series of 60GB. Why not just one 120? As I said I don't wanna waste the perfectly fine old one and was thinking about putting all 3 60GB SSD'S in a 180GB RAID 0 configuration.

Will this work?

FYI: Yes I know this increases my chances of failure and total data loss and yes I know this is more expensive than one 120GB SSD

P.S.: Better ideas are welcome!

Thanks,

Jirne

I hate to be a grammar nazi (knowing my own English is horrible), but did you mean "blend"? If so the answer is no. It's a FORCE SSD ;)

This my friend, is Djent.

Hey Jirne,
 
You can put in RAID pretty much any drive you would like. It should work fine. Do have in mind that all drives will be limited in speed to the speeds of the slowest one. You should be having pretty good loading times and transfer speeds. The booting time might be longer since the RAID array needs to be initialized first, but everything else should be much better in terms of performance.
