[QUOTE="martyp, post: 787957, member: 61183"] Hey everyone, I've just ordered a Mac Pro and its gonna be about 2 weeks before it gets here (8 day wait for Airport express card :Shouting: ), so in the mean time I thinking about what upgrades to buy for it. I just left the standard 320Gb HDD drive as I am going to change it to a Samsung Spinpoint F1 1TB drive. However, if I buy two, could I configure these in a RAID0 array. I did not add the PCIe RAID card to the order as I thought that was for SAS drives, although I am unwilling to pay that much for a RAID array I realistically don't need. I managed a RAID0 on my last PC via the on-board RAID chip, but I don't know if the Mac Pro's mobo has one. If any of you have done this or know if its possible/impossible it would be great to hear from you. :D Marty [/QUOTE]
