- iMac 27" 3.4GHz i7, 32GB RAM, 2TB HDD, 2GB GPU, 2 OWC Mercury Extreme SSD's @ 1,100Mb/s
I am upgrading my iMAC 27" 3.4GHz i7 quad core, with 32GB RAM, 2GB GPU and 2TB HDD to add 2 OWC Mercury Pro Extreme SSD's -- i want to set them up in a RAID configuration and have the HDD as the mirror backup.
- i'm looking for maximum speeds, and with these two SSD's i should be around 1,100Mb/s I/O vs 550 with just one, or 258 with Apples, or 60ish with the HDD. Reliability is also some what of a concern, which is why i thought the RAID 01 or RAID 10.
Would i want a RAID 01 or RAID 10 setup to be precise? and are either of these possible?
-- and i apologize if this is more of a software issue.
Cheers,
Ky
