What are you trying to accomplish by adding another drive?

If you need more storage space overall then Raid 0 isn't a great option.

If you are looking for speed a 60gb ssd is going to be much much faster then 2x f3's in raid 0.

Well a SSD will give you a huge performance, but it also will cost you more. You should get the crucial M4 64 GB it's around $115 but it can get as low as $90 sometimes.

Listing your pc specs would help. I speciially need info in the motherboard. Btw, do you have the OS intalled in your current F3 hard drive?
