[odraude]

Hey guys i have a question.. i want to upgrade my computer with a ssd, but i want to replace the optical drive with it, aand put the main os on the solid drive, and use the default 500g drive for storage...

so, how i configurate raid in order to have the os in the solid and the media on the other drive??

thanks

What you want to do has nothing to do with RAID.

RAID has nothing to do with this process.

But in order to install the OS on SSD, you need to start Lion Recovery.

I think the OP wants to make it a JBOD but since the MBP doesn't support JDBOD. Since RAID-0 will do what he wants - make both drives appear as a single volume, he's asking about it

hey thank maflynn, that is exactly what i want to do 2 my machine
, if i do it with one solid and the other the one thats come with the machine, that will reduce the performance?'

Do you really need them set up in raid? I can't imagine it's an easy process, and certainly don't think it would be the optimal solution. Why not just have them as sseparate volumes?

Is there a reason you want to set it up in RAID mode?
Why not just use the HDD as storage?
