I don't see the problem you guys seem to have with it.
I just don't see the point of going to RAID if its only to RAID0. If you have 2 *200GB drives and have them non raided you can have 400GB of data. If a drive dies you still have half your data. If you have them RAID0 you have the same amount of data storage with the bonus that if one drive goes, all your data is screwed.

I just figured as a gaming rig the drives would be faster than 7.2k rpm and raided as RAID1. Mainly so if a drive dies you can still do your guild raid that night earning DKP whilst popping to the shop for a replacement/ordering online without losing any nights of WoW action. Cos ltes face it, anyone buying a dedicated WOW themed laptop is gonna be raiding all night every night and poop socking his way to victory.
