[QUOTE="mhowie, post: 1630147, member: 340441"] I'm considering converting the two 1TB HDDs in my Mac Mini (2012) to a RAID 0 configuration. If I do this it is my understanding that I must erase all of the data on the drives (for my situation it would only be the first HDD as the second HDD possesses no data yet). Could I use Carbon Copy Cloner (or similar program), clone the current HDD, and then use CCC to import that image to the new RAID 0 drive setup? Thanks for the direction and for any other tips that might help. I am running the latest build of Yosemite (non-Server). I just don't believe I'll ever use the second HDD as 1TB should be sufficient for all of my local storage/data needs. At this point it is somewhat superfluous and if I could derive some benefit speed-wise as I don't have an SSD, it seems to make sense to pursue this path? [/QUOTE]
