You can fry your hard drive very easy if it runs too hot. Bad air circulation.

I am aware. But i am too poor to afford an array of drives, so RAID0 just makes me feel better about myself. =P

raid 10 = kick a$$ speed levels + redundancy...not to mention a kick in the pants cost at a minimum of 4 drives and the raid controller. *cries*
