So I built a PC with two SSDs in a raid 0. I've since had two drive failures that took me out for week each time ( see post here: http://www.tomshardware.com/forum/375950-31-need-troubleshooting-failing-hardware-components#t2842166). Data loss isn't a huge deal because I back up religiously and rarely lose more than a file or two. (unfortunately this last time it was my dad's eulogy video the day before his funeral)
I've just received replacement drives. I'm contemplating whether I want to risk another raid 0 failure or if I should go with a raid 1. Are my applications even making use of 1gb/sec read/write? I do edit video frequently as well as very large photos 16,000px+. I'm not sure if it's some of my other components, but this PC is ridiculous fast. I don't want to change that if the raid 0 Is making a big difference.
I guess I just need some opinions from others that know the mechanics better than I.
