Scorpio Blue RAID0?

[Ploki]

I just got Cineraid Home 2x2.5" USB3.0 bus-powered enclosure (awesome thing), and want to buy 2x1TB WD Scorpio blue for them.

Then I came across this thread:

Does this hold water?
I did run WD Scorpio Black 320GB for two years successfully in RAID0.

I have placed 2x Scorpio Blue hard drives in RAID0 before and never had a problem. Although, I've only done it internally.

Scorpio Blue 1TB,

external USB3.0 raid0, bus powered.

Hell. Yeah.

On top of that, it's less noisy than a single WD Passport Studio 500GB.

thank you CineRaid for making a totally awesome enclosure.

That enclosure looks awesome.

That enclosure looks awesome.

Yeah it is. total size is not much bigger than old passport, and bus-power works great. It also builds into height instead of most dualdrive bays that build in width.
The total size is about the size of a 3.5 Drive unhoused.
