I do quite a bit of video editing and am wanting to speed it up a bit and also add more space.
I have three 1tb drives.
One is my boot drive. On it I keep documents and crap I don't use much. Also music (for itunes)
Then I have a drive which I use as my scratch disk for FCS. It's about 80% full right now.
Then I have a third where I keep everything else, most relevant is that I keep my FCP project files here.
Now this may be a question that I should put in the digital video section I'm not sure. Basically I want to speed up FCP (And after effects) so should I get a hardware RAID and get another drive and use raid 0 on the scratch disk and the new drive which would give me a 2tb scratch disk. Should I get another drive and then raid 0 all three (Excluding the boot disk) together... What would give me the most speed. I don't really want to raid 0 my boot disk but I can if it would give me large speed increases.
Thanks in advance
