I am planning on building my own PC with the following components:http://pcpartpicker.com/p/WaQE . I'm just curious whether this build is being bottlenecked or not due to the 2-way SLI. I plan on using this for heavy gaming and video editing and the occasional movie or two. Also, I want to know if the HDD and SDD can have a RAID configuration.

Thanks

Two storage of different size and speed cannot (weeeeeell should not - they will slow to speed of slowest and 2x size of smallest) be put into normal raid

EDIT:
What raid?
for raid 1 (copy disk 1 onto disk 2) there are live copiers out there.

also SLI doesn't bottleneck so much as cause a phenomenon called microstuttering. basicly the two gpus sometimes finish parts of a frame out of sync so frame time can vary acusing a small amount of ag. this does not however result in lower fps, just small artefacts onscreen
