a cheap docking station with two SATA slots (currently housing hard disks) and putting them together on a RAID0 almost doubles a single one’s performance.

you can buy a 50cc moped and attach a NOS cylinder to it. that might be a fun hobby project, if you’re into it.

but in a drag race, you’re going to get beat by a 10 year old Toyota Prius. because there’s only so much you can eke out of a 50cc engine.

“RAID0 using a cheap 2-slot external enclosure” is one of the more cursed things I’ve ever contemplated. firmly in “just because you can doesn’t mean you should” territory.
