Hi all,
I’ve been looking into getting a new SSD for my gaming desktop, as I’d like to start recording footage but don’t have enough space at the moment.
A friend recommended 2 SSD’s in Raid 0, but after extensive research I’m still unsure whether this will provide an observable difference in terms of load times.
My other concern is that my Mobo won’t support Raid 0, or the Trim function for SSD’s in Raid.
So, my questions are;
1: Will 2xSSDs in Raid 0 reduce load times for an MMO (Elder Scrolls Online) by a noticeable amount, compared to a single, larger drive?
2: Will an MSI B85-G43 Gaming motherboard be able to run 2xSSDs in Raid 0 with Trim function?
3: Will I be able to transfer the OS from my current SSD to the new set if they are in Raid?
Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
