Product: HP ENVY 750-180
Operating System: Microsoft Windows 10 (64-bit)

I want to install a RAID card in my HP ENVY 750-180.  The SSD drive that came with the computer is too small.  What kind of RAID card should I get ?  In which slot can I install the RAID card ?  I will get 2 larger SSD drives to use with the RAID card - RAID 0.

Hi,

 

There is a PCIe x1 version 2 slot available in your PC for an add-in card but the bandwidth is not going be much faster if at all compared to SATA III.

 

Go with my previous suggestion.

Eddie,

 

You don't need a RAID card to increase storage.  Just buy a larger SSD.  500 GB SATA III SSDs are cheap these days.

Agree - But I want to use RAID 0 to improve the performance.
