Now, I plan on buying 2 36 gig raptors. I will arrange them in raid0. I have a 60 gig Maxtor 7200 rpm that im fine with making the mirror. Will the Maxtor slow performance? Or will it just be cached in ram or somthing till its written? I'd like to be safe, but not at an extreme risk of performance.

Some users have recently had their accounts hijacked. It seems that the now defunct EVGA forums might have compromised your password there and seems many are using the same PW here. We would suggest you UPDATE YOUR PASSWORD and TURN ON 2FA for your account here to further secure it. None of the compromised accounts had 2FA turned on.
Once you have enabled 2FA, your account will be updated soon to show a badge, letting other members know that you use 2FA to protect your account. This should be beneficial for everyone that uses FSFT.

What do you mean by fine with making the mirror?

you ideally waant to have the raptors in RAID then just use the 60 for backup not having anything to do with the RAID

If your planning to mirror the hardware RAID 0 with a software RAID 1 it will certainly inpact performance, just Ghost the array (or partitions on the array totaling less than the target drive) overnight on a regular basis
