I honestly love this cooler, but I think I'm gonna move on to another one soon, it just looks... A bit to bland compared to other flaming red (literally) coolers on the market.

Just picked up a second crucial 128 m4 was running out of space for my games.
Is there any benefit from configuring them in RAID 0 vs just using the as two separate drives
This is for a new build so I will be wiping the first anyway

Yes, it's double the speed and for operating systems it is especially great. Make sure to select a rather low block size when configuring the disks in the controller bios because os's need lower sizes. I would backup all data from time to time because if one of them fails then the data on both of them is lost.

I had a few in RAID 0 a while and there is almost no difference.

However, it is great if you like dealing with single volumes and transfer large amounts of data on and off the drive often.
