RAID 0 by itself should never be used. Combined with other RAID
levels, it can boost performance without sacrificing reliability.

Personally, I don't like RAID 0 + ? schemes because they use too many
disks (with associated reliability issues). The required performance
usually can be achieved in other ways. But YMMV.
