So I have my 500GB Samsung EVO SSD and I plan on doing a rebuild/reformat soon and I thought about upgrading my storage SSD wise, and instead of me buying a 1TB SSD and having this one as a waste I figured just buy another 500GB EVO and Raid 0 them.
Now I dont have the money burning a whole in my pocket (The extra $200ish for the EVO) but it come across my mind because I try and keep the re-formats I have to do to a minimum. What would be a guestimate at the speed increase id get from RAID 0'ing 2 Samsung 500GB EVO's? Would it be worth it?
I know that a subjective question but these SSD's would be for my OS and most frequent applications/games, such as Photoshop, After Affects, Premiere, coding applications (like codeblocks, notepad++ for college), streaming application such as OBS, then of course games like League of Legends, CSGO, Hearthstone, latest triple A titles I'm playing so like Star Wars Battlefront and Fallout 4 now.
So I think it might be worth doing it because I do believe my Adobe applications would take advantage of the quicker read writes no? Here is also the SSD.
