Oh, well that's even more pointless then. It looks good in sequential benchmarks, but actually hurts random I/O and does basically nothing for the vast majority of real world use cases. And more or less doubles your chance of losing all the data from both drives (you lose everything if either drive fails). Unless you really want both drives to appear as a single spanned volume for some reason, just use them as separate drives.

RAID 0 does a lot more for benchmark performance, not so much for real world performance. I wouldn't expect it to make a significant difference in load times. If you want fast storage, get an SSD and keep whatever game(s) you're currently playing on it.
