Im planning to set my system up with two Maxtor 80GB 8mb SATA drives running in RAID 0, but everywhere I read I see people talking about how risky it is when you can lose your data if one HDD fails.
What I would like to know is how likely is that to happen? I mean, does one drive have to physically stop working in order to lose the data, or can it happen with something as simple as a power blackout or not shutting down properly? I'll mainly be using the system for gaming so wont really have anything important anyway, I just dont want to have to re-install my system twice a month.
Thanks
