Raid 0 vs SSD

Hello,

 

I'm going for a new Build. High Preformance as pissible is the target.

 

Now i see  Linus Overkill Guide and that he uses Raid 0 with 2 ssds.

 

What are the pros for a Configuration like this with 3 SSDs in Raid 0 and the HDDs in Raid 1 ant the cons?

Same for my previous planned purchase of a Samsung 840 750GB for Games, OS and Programmes and a USB Drive for all the Data (Musik, Videos etc)

 

Thanks!

do ssds still not supports TRIM in raid 0 ?

They do.

 

Pro of ssd said 0 is faster sequential transfer speed.

Cons are higher failure rate and slower random access times which is what actually matters.

I'd go with a single larger SSD. The evo is the best option available as of the writing of this. Unless you count the RAIDR from ASUS, then the matter is up for debate

I'd personal go with raid 10

RAID 10 is one of my favourite RAID's but I rarely use it because of the high GB/$ ratio and in most cases I don't need the added performance you get when comparing it to RAID 5 or 6.

 

RAID 10 In my opinion is only useful in servers where need need the high I/O with a lot of storage and where cost of HDD's / SSD's usually doesn't have a large impact.

The only down side to raid is a hdd could be returning bad data and have good data on the parody drive.

The other option is raid z but I don't think you can use it without special hardware.

Or RAID 7... But you definitely a special RAID controller for that

Nope, it's proprietary and not supported by any RAID card outside of the ones its owners use.

RAID-Z is ZFS software RAID, any you can use it with most PC hardware.
