Thanks for the advice!

Its almost common knowledge that if two identical SSD's are placed in a hardware RAID you can achieve a speed boost and larger capacities. I would like to do this on my brand new hackintosh build. Lion is currently sitting on a WD 1TB Black, but I have two Corsair Force 3 120GB SSD's. Is it...

thanks for the help guys I'm probably going to buy an XFX Radeon 6870, just to be safe, but in the future when better support comes for these newer 4xx series card I'll defiantly upgrade
