Hello,

I have asus z370-f and 2x nvme 960 Evo m.2. Thinking to enable raid 0 (stripping). Is it worth doing it? If so I would appreciate some instructions or link on how to do it.

Truthfully, no, its not worth doing Raid 0 with NVMe drives as you will see no performance difference or increase as a result. Now if you want say Raid 1, then yea, i would do it so you can save your data in the event something happens. But Raid 0, no.

Raid with NVMe drives isn't useful. Unless you really need those speeds, no.

just for gaming. I wanted to figure out if it's worth for game load speeds, installation, etc.. But as you say it's not - I guess I will not go for it then. For Raid 1 I suppose you are going to get a speed decrease - so I do not want to go for it since I run backups to my NAS device anyway.
