Hi everyone, i am interested in buying 2 Asus Raidr because 1 at 240GB will not be big enough.

Does anyone know if it is possible to use 2 of these and raid them together, as i have tried searching the web, youtube and have even tried contacting their support department 3 times in 3 weeks but no one has replied back to me.

Yes, of course you can.
You can concatenate them or put them in RAID0. But you'll need to make sure that you back up, because you've got a much higher chance of failure with 2 drives vs 1.

I"m pretty sure there was eve an official video on youtube from ASUS where they demonstrated RAIDR cards in software RAID0 and were recommend that over SATA SSD's in RAID0 due to controller limitations.

I mean, obviously it's a nightmare in terms of reliability, but it's possible and advertised by ASUS themselves, so...
