Multiple OS on RAID vs seperate drives
Last response: in Storage
I have two identical 128GB SSD drives and a motherboard that can RAID them SATA III. I need a windows OS and a LINUX OS. My question is: should I use separate drives for each OS, or should I RAID0 the SSDs and partition the drive. The Windows OS needs more space than the LINUX OS. I'm thinking the RAID idea will be the best in regards to speed, space optimization, and with no cost, but maybe I am missing something.

Seems like a +1 for a RAID setup, even if it is fakeRAID.
