Tina I strongly disagree  with the idea of making a RAID 0 drive (the
striping). This is intended in theory to increase performance further by
writing portions of each file to each drive (treating them as one big
drive) I don't know the actual practical performance increase of using
these very fast drives that way, but  setup as I understand that Mehrdad
has reccommended  triples the likelihood of a failure in which case all of
the information would be lost including your boot drive (Windows and
everything else) and possibly negates the point of having the scratches
files on separate drives for performance in the first place.
I'll bow out on list on this.
