You decide (usually I see people either do 0 (performance) or 1 (data integrity))

Spanned Volume is probably what you were looking for.

And for RAID 0, depends on what motherboard you have, it should come with a manual on how to set up RAID 0 on your motherboard. I think all motherboards now have RAID 0 capability, especially if your motherboard have SATA.
