Hi, aqua 
I've seen so many system benchmarks with raid configuration and got amazed by watching the HDD performance.
my question is i have three 500 GB identical HDD can i use raid with them my raid knowledge is zero
the only thing i know is there's 6 or 7 kind of raid configuration 0,3,5 etc. so what i want is some guidance like how to do it, What do i need. Do i need any extra hardware. and what is software raid?
here's my system configuration:-
Mobo - Asus P5K-VM G33 + ICH9
Processor - Intel C2Q Q6600 @ 2.4 GHz
GPU - Nvidia GTS 250 512mb
RAM - 4GB DDR2 @ 800 MHz
PSU - 500W Cooler Master
HDD - 3 x 500GB
