    RAID0 strips the data into each disk, and writes half to each disk, you can write above 512GB on one disk, so you can't use more than 512GB per disk, thats why RAID0 should never be used in different sized disks.

    Yes, and you should not mix and match drives, always use the same brand and exact model.

    Yes you need a matched pair ideally so they respond at the same rate, you use one then the other over and over. It can trip it up if one is taking longer to respond than the other.
