I'm spitballing a new computer. Right now I have a Mushkin 60GB SSD and a 300GB Raptor for the big stuff.

I plan on keeping the SSD for the OS as it's served me well and been just right for size.

Need more space than the Raptor so I'm looking for 2 inexpensive HDD's to do a RAID 0, which I've never tried before. Looking at these right now:

Right about the price I want and PLENTY of storage between 2 of them. But is there something better that I should consider?
 
I don't really, lol

Just for loading video games. Frankly I wouldn't mind using the raptor since I have it but it's too small and I need to leave something in my current computer to make it easier to sell.

I've never tried RAID before and I figured what the hell, might as well see what it's all about.

I'd prefer a 256gb ssd and make due with the space, but they are still out of my price range.

HDD's of this range are affordable enough that I can get two for the hell of it just to screw around.
