If your goal is performance, and you are running a typical PC with only 1 32-bit PCI bus, then watch out for saturating that bus. You can get no more performance than the single PCI bus can deliver, after that more drives give you more space at the cost of performance.
You would have to go to a 64-bit PCI bus and controllers made for it, or additional buses, to get more performance.

Agreed. Don't recall how many drives you have, but if it's three plus and they're the same size (I think you said they were), I'd go for RAID 5. I know you said data loss wasn't an issue and if that's really true, then 0 is fine. Obviously 5 gives you everything that 0 does but with a trade-off of n-1 space for some fault tolerance.
