Hi I currently have a Western Digital 80 GB w/8MB Buffer. I want to buy another 80 GB and put the two drives in RAID 0. I also have a Seagate 20 GB. Currently I have the hard drives on the primary channel and the DVD and CD-RW drives on the Secondary channel. If I get a RAID card, which one should I get? I know I would connect the 2 80 GB drives to the RAID card, but where would the 20 GB go? Also, where would the CD drives get connected to? Lastly, what is a REALLY good and fast RAID 0 card? Here is my system:

Just connect the two 80GB HD's to the RAID card and leave the rest unchanged (ie. 20GB HD to primary channel and the DVD and CD-RW drives on the secondary channel). As for which RAID 0 card to get, I suggest you check out the <A HREF="http://www.promise.com/product/product_list_eng.asp?familyId=7" target="_new">Promise</A> line of products.
