Hey, I need to buy extra storage for my ssd boot drive (San disk 60gb) but I'm not to keen on RAIDing so i was wondering if there is any possible way to combine two drives without raiding? thanks.

No, there is not. Just get a normal mechanical HDD and install your games and store your files on it. Leave only the OS on the SSD.

I have already a 1tb wd drive but im still short on storgae as loads of thing like program data are being stored on my ssd- so if i have no choice what is the best raid if i add a 120gb drive just to douple the storage i dont care about speed. Thanks

I would just get a 120gb SSD and close the 60gb dive to the 120gb one.

This is a common issue and why we generally don't recommend anything smaller than a 120gb SSD for storage drive.
