SATA with RAID ???

Hi all, I am looking at SATA drives.

In a review of the Seagate SATA and Western Digital SATA, they also include a "raid" version benchmark...
You can see the artical here, http://accelenation.com/?ac.id.217.3

But, here is my question.

In the artical, the WD sata drive in RAID outperforms the single WD sata drive.

Is this performance gain with RAID 0, RAID 1, or both?

I assume that it is only with the data stripping... and not the mirroring.

Oh, p.s., does anyone own two WD raptor 74gb in RAID? if so, do you like them. (im considering these).

~Thanks
 
im planning on getting 2 of the 36GB ones and doing striping. that way i get the perf of pulling data off both at once, and i wont lost space to mirroring. seems to be the best way to go. mirror is usually for redundancy.
 
Raid1 would probably give some increase in reading performance. Raid0 would decrease reading performance marginally but increase writing.
