Thanks a lot for answering. I'm looking for an Akitio Quad Mini with four 4tb 2.5" drive.

Do you think I can make two 8tb RAID0 partition? And use one for Time Machine and the other for Archive and make the backup?

I don't need best performance on the two partitions I already own a thunderbolt ssd RAID.]]></content:encoded>

I'm in the process to build up a new raid0 Thunderbolt2 solution. 

Like using Akitio Thunder2 Quad Mini + 2 Samsung EVO SSD 1tb + 2 Seagate 5400rpm mechanical 4tb.

Is it possibile to create a RAID0 10tb total disk with Softraid Lite or not? 

Any issue? Problem you see in this solution? 

Best to create a RAID0 all with 4 Seagate 4tb disk?]]></content:encoded>
