RAID 0 drive sets - bootable - in Yosemite !
Did you know that you can still do RAID-0 system drive sets for silly fast booting using two small SSD drives? Yosemite 10.10 installed with UniBeast 5.01 built USB, MultiBeast 7 and Chimera 4.0.0.
Use this guide with the current TonyMacX86 tool set. You do need to download Pacifist (google for it) to extract the boot files needed.

Oh! And be sure to go back through MultiBeast and add Trim support (Disk > TRIM Enabler > 10.10.0 TRIM Patch).
This is a copy of my terminal session that I just ran on my “System on Slides” [SOS] hack.
