hi,
I'm running 2x 500gb Seagate barracuda's with software raid0 primarily for video work. I was planning on getting another 500 so that I could get more speed and space out of the Raid. Today I bought a couple of Disk's along with the 500gb I was planning to get, but instead I've bought a 1tb🙁 If the shop wasn't closed I would've gone straight back and replace it but its too late..
I googled if there were Raid0 setups that had 2x500 and a different drive like a 1tb drive🙂 and Some place I found out that it would be like having 3x500 gb's..
I don't know if its true but I want to know if this setup would cause problems in the future for me? The only reason I'm asking this question here is that If the 1tb stays I could buy 2 more 1tb's and have a 3gb raid0 setup in the future and put those extra 2x500 gbs on another computer as stuff these days need more space..
Sorry If this is a easy question for you guys but I don't really know enough about raid setups..
