    I´m building an htpc in an antec fusion case and I am wondering what I should do about Raid.

    I have 2 x 400 gb samsung disks that are going into the machine.
    I was going to split one of the disks into two partitions, 50gb for Windows XP os and 350gb for media.  Then I would just create a single partition for the 2nd one also for media.

    My question is should I think things differently and choose a raid setup?  What are the benefits? 
    I don´t want to loose storage space for backup reasons as I will manually backup the files that I need to own to an external hdd.
