Right now I have a mini with my 256GB ssd in it. I just got a new 27" imac which has the 1TB (non fusion) hdd in it. I am having a bit of a dilemma. I use about 170GB worth of data right now on mini, but will use more once i switch to imac because I am retiring my windows pc for gaming. So I will need to have a bootcamp partition as well for those non osx games.

My thoughts are, do i put the 256GB ssd in a tb enclosure (which I have a lacie 2 bay one) and then fusion it to the 1tb and then also have windows bootcamp on it? Or do I take the lacie and put 2 of the 256GB ssd (which I do have as well) and just raid 0 them via TB and then use the 1TB internal for windows and maybe also a time machine or ccc of the raid array data?
