Hey,
I wonder if I could gently abuse your wealth of expertise and ask for a little help. I'd like to build a software RAID from scratch for as reasonable a price as possible. I'd want to be going for speed with 4 bays in RAID 0, and my OS is OSX.
I know there is a complete lack of affordable thunderbolt enclosures on the market, so I guess it'll be a bit of an impossibility to have that. Is USB 3.0 fast enough in the real world for my needs?
So could someone suggest a shopping list of the components I'd most likely need? I've had a search through the forums here, and whilst there is a wealth of information and I've learnt a lot, I haven't found anything for my specific needs.
Thank you,
Dan
