Lately, I've been working a lot with raw game footage. Usually, these files are about 500GB/Hour of footage. I've been working off of 2 2TB in RAID 0, courtesy of Windows 7. I've been thinking of throwing in 2 more 2TB drives and adding them to the array. Should I get a RAID card considering that I will be working with 4 drives in RAID 0? Or will setting them as stripped through Disk Management in Windows be fine enough?
My build:
i7 875k @3.8Ghz
Radeon 7970
16GB DDR3
120GB boot SSD
2x 2TB drives for footage
2x 300GB drives (IDE, will be removing these if upgrading)
1TB drive for misc files
700w OCZ PSU
