I have around 175$ and I currently have a single 320g seagate HD. Should I go raid 0 or can I get a raptor 150g 10,000RPM HD to go with the 320g, would the raptor idea work? I know nothing about setting up raid etc, could anyone explain please. Can I just hook up the raptor and it will work, how will it know what harddrive to use etc.
 
would the raptor idea work?
I am unsure about what your idea is.
There are no problems with running two (or more) harddrives in a single system.
Can I just hook up the raptor and it will work, how will it know what harddrive to use etc.
yes, you hook up the harddrive, go into disk management (start->run->diskmgmt.msc) and format it, assign it a drive letter and you are done. You will know which harddrive it is using based on what drive letter you are accessing.
 
With a RAID system, all the HD's have to be the same brand, model, and size.
