The drawbacks: A failure in a single drive will cause the loss of the entire array (actually, it'll more likely go into read-only mode, and you will be able to recover some data), but you should really only use this feature if you are properly backing up any important data (which you should be doing anyway), or it's something that's easily replaceable (like downloadable games, media, etc.; usually user data and saved games are stored on your OS drive regardless of game location, which you should also back up). You can, of course, choose to implement mirroring or assign parity drives, but those features are more for high-availability, and they offset the value by reducing the usable space. This approach has server me well because I can use a single large volume of SSD space instead of manually deciding which of 4 drives I want to store data on (and the inevitable wasted slack space on each). It has served me well for years, and through the price gouging trend SSDs (hopefully now, that's in the past).
