Hey guys,
I just bought a 2nd WD6401AALS Black to try RAID 0 for my first time. I read many people suggesting to short stroke them for maximum performance. What size is optimal to get the best performance from the WD6401AALS Blacks?
I will be running Win7 Pro 64bit and about four games. I also have a 750GB black for other files.
I also wasn't sure if this could be done. If I short stroke them to 320GB that leaves me 320GB unused. Can I use that to backup my C:? I think my question is can I run RAID 0 and RAID 1 on one of the hard drive. Is that even a good idea?
