Raid 0 is just another drive.I use Acronis true image,Its reliable and will also clone large to smaller drive auto resizing the partition in the process.Theres also clonezilla and macrium reflect which are free. Hi, I recently mounted an aorus x470 gaming 7 with a cpu rayzen 7 2700x with 2 ssd nvme in raid 0 (samsung 970evo). But when I create the raid 0 and then install windows 10 (driver for detecting the raid to be immed when installing windows), I do a performance test with samsung magican and me from 74.218 in random reading (IOPS), and 59.326 in. For RAID 1, select Real-time data protection (RAID 1). For RAID 0, select Optimized disk performance (RAID 0). Click Configure and: Enter a Volume Name. Select the disks to create RAID on. Select the drive that you want to migrate the operating system from. Then click Next.
So, RAID 0 is supposed to improve performance of disk access. How much does it improve it.
Only place I think disk access is slowing down my machine is when I'm starting an application. From what I remember, when Firefox hasn't already been opened and closed (e.g., Firefox is not cached) it takes maybe 10 seconds to open Firefox. Like would this 10 seconds go down to 5 seconds?
Also, I keep an svk repository of /etc. I just counted and a 'sudo svk st /etc' took 21 seconds, this is a command I do run more than you would think, but not every day. With a RAID 0 array how much would that go down in performance?
The only attraction to RAID 1 for me is diluted because of the warnings I've read that it's not really a good backup strategy. You still need to do backups anyway. This is a machine at home that I play with. Even if I only did backups to DVD once a week, it's rare a week goes by that if a hard disk failed right before I did a backup, that RAID 1 would save me by preserving all the work I did in the last week. Occasionally I do some real work that I don't want to lose on this machine, but it's not often... And, I guess if I did start doing real work, I could just do backups more frequently.
So, RAID 0, or RAID 1?

ChrisDSR Oct 3, 2013 at 6:15 AM. I don't think I'd recommend Clonezilla for a server backup for two reasons: 1) You can't restore the image to a smaller drive, and we're talking total drive size, not free space. If you had a 2TB partition that failed with only 512GB in use you'd need to restore to at least a 2TB partition. Rescuezilla is an easy-to-use disk imaging application that's fully compatible with Clonezilla — the industry-standard trusted by tens of millions. Disk imaging makes a backup of your computer's hard drive which is managed as files stored on an external hard drive. If your hard drive fails, you can restore your disk image and within a few.
