RAID 0 and PrimoCache

Hi everyone!

I have a new Alienware m15 R7 with 2 Crucial P3 2TB SSD's. I want to set these drives up as a RAID 0 for a total of 4TB. My question is will PrimoCache work on a RAID 0 setup and will it provide a performance increase similar to using just a single drive?

Any thoughts or suggestions?

Thanks!

Yes, PrimoCache supports RAID.

Do you have any setup suggestions or links to the best way to configure PrimoCache in a RAID setup?

There are no special settings for RAID drives because PrimoCache does not operate drives directly, but handles them through the operating system, so all drives are treated the same.

So I purchased PrimoCache and installed it, but I am unable to configure RAID 0 using PrimoCache. Does anyone have a link for creating a RAID 0 volume with PrimoCache?

PrimoCache is not used to create RAID0. Most motherboards support creating RAID. You can check the motherboard manual to see how to create a RAID0.
