Buying small capacities don't result in optimal performance. Always go for the highest capacity you can afford. Raiding them is cool though.
This new SSD drive is under 50 cents a gigabyte on newegg sale. It is quite good for the price to performance ratio over the years and offers higher data protection over existing drives.
