RAID 0 with mismatched Samsung SSDs

What problems, if any, would arise from creating a RAID 0 array with a Samsung 840 (non-pro) and an 840 EVO, both 120gb? Intel Z87 chipset.

Thanks

performance inconsistency, basically. Nothing mind-blowing. Just wouldn't be as awesome as a pair of EVOs.

Any greater risk of data loss than with matched drives in RAID 0? I have backups, just curious if it's worth making the effort. Probably not, but sometimes I feel the need to tinker

Having worked in support for one of the major raid companies, there is always an increased chance of failure with mismatched drives, not definite, but definitely an increased chance.

Great. Thanks everyone.
