Setting up RAID
About RAID
RAID (Redundant Array of Inexpensive/ Independent Disks)
lets your computer use multiple hard drives more efficiently.
Your computer supports RAID 0, RAID 1, RAID 5, and RAID 10.

RAID 0 for performance
RAID 0 lets your computer see multiple hard drives as a single
drive. This type of RAID can increase file access speeds, which
is important if you work with video editing, sound editing, and
high-performance games. RAID 0 is also an affordable way to
increase your total file storage capacity.

How it increases performance
The more drives you have in your RAID 0 array, the faster the
potential drive reading performance. All hard drives have
limitations on how fast they can read and write files. If half
a file is stored on one RAID 0 drive and the other half on
another RAID 0 drive, each drive only has to read half of the
file. So, the entire file is accessed by the computer up to twice
as fast (using a two-drive RAID 0 array). In a three-drive RAID 0
array, if the file is evenly distributed among the drives, each
drive must read only a third of the file, and so on. If the entire
file happens to be stored on only one of the drives, the file
is accessed at the same speed as if it were on a standard hard
drive setup. Dividing up files between multiple hard drives like
this is called striping.
