Hi,
I work as an editor and I am currently looking for a RAID 0 solution. I'm using a 2011 iMac so I am equipped with Thunderbolt but cannot currently afford that technology. What I am basically left with is Firewire 800 and I would like my RAID 0 configuration to use its full potential - around 100MB/s in read speeds.
I was looking at WD's My Book Studio II as it is reasonably priced at the moment but was unable to find any reliable (in my opinion) results in disk speed tests for that particular solution. Most of them are showing RAID 0 configuration reading data at similar rates as my single Firewire 800 drives which obviously isn't what I am looking for.
Could anyone using any Firewire 800 RAID 0 device please post their read speeds and/or paste some screenshots of Blackmagic Disk Speed Test or any other similar application, and possibly recommend something?
Thanks,
Seb
