You should be able to raid 2 different ssds but I wouldn't recommend it. The only improvement would be faster sequential reads/writes which aren't what makes a ssd feel snappy. What makes it feel fast is the random reads and the memory controller. Because of this, ssds in raid 0 may actually end up slower than a single one. The array is also more likely to fail than separate drives.

Anyways.. Yes. It'd work. Also, refurbs are almost always fine.
