Hi,
Can anyone tell me if 2 hdd working on RAID -0 will make it possible to edit HD footage. I have a HD camcorder which records in full HD AVCHD format. I have been told that a couple of drives in RAID will make the encoding double the speed and will therefore solve the problems i have at the mo with the footage being jerky and lagging behind the audio and just generally nunviewable and impossible to edit.
Please i need to know if its worth investing time and money on a RAID system.
The second part of my question is as i have heard that RAID 0 is risky due to backup. If i had 2 250gb hdd working on RAID 0 and 2 working on RAID 1 could that make that problem better. Can i take a mirror of the RAID 0 setup with RAID 1 . My mobo says it support RAID 1 + 2 at the same time. Is that what that is.
Any help will be greatly aprretiated
Thanx
