Hi all
im planning to buy new gaming pc, but whats bother me is storage layout

pc will be used only for gaming, so faster loading = better choise for me
here are options im thinking about:

 

4x 2TB hdd in RAID 5

4x 2TB hdd in RAID 10

4x 500GB SSD in RAID 5 (probably overkill)

4x 500GB SSD in RAID 10 (probably overkill)

2x 500GB SSD in RAID 0 + 2TB HDD as everyday backup

because i couldnt find any decent performance tests on 4ssd in raid, im asking here

 

im more interested in performance than price so, feel free to share your opinion/experiences

None of that really makes any sense. Raid SSDs are also primarily synthetic gains since access time isn't changing. To be blunt, you're overcomplicating things.

 

Massive SINGLE HDD for games that don't benefit from SSD speed. Biggest SINGLE SSD you can afford for games that have slow load times.
