AdministratorCan I add SSD to RAID 0?
Furthermore, like the storage capacity, the read/write speed of a RAID 0 is also dependent on the drive with the slowest speed in the array. Therefore, even if you add a SSD to HDD RAID 0, your RAID 0 will still work in the same speed as HDD, instead of the newly added SSD.
Can you boot from RAID?

Should I use AHCI or RAID?
If you are using a SATA SSD drive, AHCI may be more suitable than RAID. If you are using multiple hard drives, RAID is a better choice than AHCI. If you want to use an SSD plus extra HHDs under RAID mode, it’s recommended that you continue using RAID mode.
Is RAID 0 faster than a single drive?
Hardware-RAID-0 is always faster than a single drive because you can step the reads and writes across the two drives simultaneously. Downside is that if either drive fails, you lose data on both disks.
