Yes, but raid 0 won't have trim support so you have to weigh that consideration.

And as I mentioned, RELIABILITY wise, the Samsung 830 > Intel 330. If you look at the roughly equivalent Intel (128GB 520 series) you are looking at 30 or 40.00 more than this Samsung deal.

Yeah, the performance hit on the 64GB is horrible, but not so much on the 128GB... 2x 128GBs in RAID-0 majorly outperforms a 256GB in both read and write, nearly double each. Not the case with 2x...
