thats the problem. i got a virus and killed it but now my pc boots on its own. It comes up to load windows and then crashes and gets caught in a loop. I have to put a recovery cd in just to get windows back up.

I've already backed most things. just need to back up my maps then I'm good to go.

Think I'll split the drives.

If you regularly backup to a disk other than your RAID 0 array, you should be fine. I myself got a 2x 1TB RAID 0 array for data + backups and a 250GB disk for windows install + games + documents.
I do notice a great speed increase whenever I run something of the 2 TB array. The sustained transfer speed is around 200 MB/s on the RAID array and about 80 MB/s on my single 250 GB disk.

I'm also planning to get 2 60GB OCZ vertexes or 2 Intel X25M disks and put those in RAID 0 for maximum performance. Ofcourse, since it will contain my documents and such (important shit, not movies/music) I will backup it to my 2 TB array.
