Will a SSD raid 0 be beneficial?
Hi,
I'm rather confused by now. My initial idea was getting 2 of intel's new X25-M Gen 2 SSD drives and throw them into a raid 0 configuration.
After that, when released, I was (still am) going to buy Windows 7.
One of my top priorities with PCs is performance, so the TRIM feature was appealing to me.
I'm not going to ask whether or not there'll be TRIM support for raid arrays (in specific the ICH10R raid controller), but rather if this can be solved at a later point through firmware/driver updates, or would a solution enforce new hardware purchases?
Also, will the lack of TRIM for my raid0 severely impact the performance, or just a tiny bit? It'll be a system disk, on which potential games/programs will run from too, and not a storage disk.
I hope my newbie questions are alright on this otherwise high-tech forum :)
Thanks in advance,
Ottosen.
