I've got a laptop with a z170 Moba & a Pentium 6700k processor. It came with a 250 gb samsung evo 960 nvme (Boot drive) and a 1 TB WD Black HDD and I am thinking about upgrading my storage. I've got a ton of external storage options so I am not worried about volatility at all so please spare me the, "RAID 0 IS AWFUL BECAUSE YOU LOSE ALL YOUR DATA IF ONE DRIVE FAILS." speech. I know. As configured right now, I'll still lose all my data if my ssd or hdd fail but they're backed up and will continue to be. I'm thinking about ordering an additional 250 gb 960 evo and an additional 1 tb wd black and running them both in a raid 0 array. Is this possible? Will I notice any performance improvements on top of the fact that I will be doubling my storage? My laptop definitely has 2 SATA slots and 2 nvme slots so I know it's possible but I'm slightly confused about whether or not I will end up with a bottleneck because of the number of lanes provided by the motherboard. Any information you can provide will be strongly considered and even more appreciated. Thank you in advance!
