I have 2 caviar black wester digital 1tb drives...however i ordered one and my brother ordered the other for me. one is 64mb and one is 32mb cache. can this still work in raid 0 ? will there be a noticable difference as oppsed to usiing same cache drives?
 
It's always advisable to get two exact matched pairs when any raid is used for video editing, i'm not sure if this cache variation would give optimum/long life performance, but i'd get two exactly the same,
that has worked for me for many years with many many raid drive sets. BUT, these days for me not having to punch thru uncompressed10bit video this is not as critical, one drive pushing DV50 resolution is quiet OK.

some more info at apple forums you may want to wade thru it.
