I have just got another WD 80 gig 8mb, so now i have 2 and was wondering if i should put them in raid 0, so that they would be very fast, (but if anything went wrong!)
Do both drives have to be empty when setting up the raid?
or shall i just leave em?

Leave them. Speed gains are over-inflated anyway and seriously not worth the risk nor hassle to normal users. If you want to experiment go ahead as it must be tempting but I'd leave RAID well alone personally. AFAIK you'd have to wipe your current drive too.

So it's whether or not you think the speed gain is worth it, you do have 2 HDs and a RAID controller so you could always give it a try for a couple of days?
