2 36gb Raptors in RAID 0 vs 1?

Double the price but also significant boost in performance? This would be my OS/Apps drive, so looking for maximizing speed on boots and loads...

Matth will become famous soon enough
System Specs

Raid 0: Stripe interleave without fault tolerance...

Double the capacity, double the sustained throughput (reads/writes > twice the stripe size), double the risk from drive failure.


Raid 1: Mirroring...
Protection from single drive failure but only 1 drive capacity. No improvement in write performance, but some improvement in random access read, depending on the seek splitting of the controller/driver
