Of what possible use is a 1.44MB RAID 0 with abysmally slow access times? You'd be better off having 2 Egyptian boys named Jamal and Hamid copy your data to papyrus as a RAISN (redundant array of inexpensive sand niggers); at least you'd get some hot Arab pedo-buttsecks out of the deal in addition to keeping your data safe.
This is obviously for serious high performance computing
Instead of 1.44 MB @about 0.06 MB/sec
You can have 2.88MB @.12Mb sec
Raptor Jesus!, its double the speed, you could copy 1,000,000 bytes in about 10 seconds
Total nobrainer OP, go for it
just dont look for the floppy raid controller until you buy everything else, its bad luck
