Hello everyone,
I am a newby on mac and i was wondering what my options are. I need win7 for solidworks and abacus and i just got a Wd passport pro 2tb for my newyear.
What i aim to do: raid 0 ntfs startup disk of 250gb(2x125GB) for windows 7.
How: first partition the 2 separate disk's to 2x500gb mac journal. Then make them a raid 0 pair in disk utility.(1TB)
Third and difficult part for me: Can i use software to make a recognizable raid 0 ntfs inside the mac OS? (yosemite)
Or can i make a raid 0 ntfs array using windows 7 os. And is there software to make it recognisable inside the Mac OS?
Because then (if it is possible) i can use winclone to restore the bootcamp partition to the external drive (raid 0 ntfs)
These thunderbolts are bootable from startup because apple recognizes them as an internal drive at startup.(source CNET)
If it is possible i would hopefully end up with an external raid 0 bootable Windows 7 and a large Raid 0 external storage area for the mac in one portable enclosure.
The 750gb i haven't adressed would be for time machine on one disk 400gb and windows back upon disk2 350gb(opposite disk of the win OS).
Can anybody help me find this software or am i missing something else? Feel free to reply even if you think this is not the way to go.
Thanks already for the reply,

Happy newyear to everyone here from France.
