Scratch Disk HD purchase?

will it be a problem to have 2 sata II drives in raid0 and the ata150 for the os?

i wouldnt even know where to begin to install something like that?
 
I dont think it should matter. As long as its the same drives it should be ok. Someone that has a setup like that can probably help you out more.
 
i have noticed a difference when using a 10k system drive w/ a 7.2k hdd and the most improvement was when having a pagefile on all hdds.

current system - os/appz/games/pagefile = 15k scsi // 10k scsi pagefile/data/backup // 7.2k ata data/pagefile/backups 😀

works very well this way and is better than a single hdd setup, regardless of size (i would rather have 2 320GB hdds than 1 750 for this reason taking $$ out of the equation). for you, not knowing your exact budget and since you are doing video editing i would get the most space possible since current hdds, even the 7.2k ones, are more than fast enough in the str dept for video editing

10k is a difference from 7.2k but if you are on a limited budget and need space, you can't beat the 7200.10s 320GB for excellent price/GB ratios

hope this helps
