I am building a new PC for a friend, and he has a 640Gig, and a 1TB drive for storage. Would it be ok to put them in Raid-0? I have never raided two different size drives.
 
I wouldnt do that....I just see that causing problems, and the wd640's are really fast by themselves.

Why would you want to do that...just curious?
 
I don't suggest this either. It's better to RAID like drives in general. Also the remaining 360gb of space on the 1tb drive will be unused. You'd end up with a 640gb drive.

Go with the 640gb on its own, plus the 1tb for storage. You'll have less headaches and better stability.

It was something he asked if it could be done. I didn't think it could but just wanted to check first. The boot drive is a 250gig, the 640 and 1TB are both for storage.
