    Will this HDD work in RAID 0 with my stock 320GB HDD?

    If you're going to RAID it with a simmilar drive AKA 320Gb 7200rpm then YES.

    That's awesome. Thanks for the quick reply. I am going to run it RAID 0 with my stock drive. +rep

    keep in mind though: if one of the drives fail - whole your data will wipe.

    Well that's one of the downsides of setting a RAID 0 array...
