RAID 0 is no good for booting, because if one disk or the controller fails, all is lost.

What are you talking about? The links are correct, but somehow this web server redirects to the wrong page.

But there are no such SSD disks around except in RAID 0, as far as I know. Indeed, it contains Toshiba TH58TFT0DFKLAVF 128 GB MLC NAND Flash (x2, 256GB Total) as shown at

That points out to RAID 0. That is why I asked. Someone knows Toshiba TH58TFT0DFKLAVF 128 GB MLC NAND Flash read/write specifications?
