I am looking for a way to make a raid 1 of two SSD's, and to be able

Running SSD's in RAID1 has been contentious from the perspective that I
have been researching storage technology.
Is there any serious, properly researched, and learned infornmation
available about this?
The reason I ask is that, in a related situation, I have 4x high quality
HGST SLC SAS SSD's, and I was seriously thinking that RAID0 might be the
appropriate way to configure them. This assumes a well designed backup
strategy of course.
Is this foolhardy?

Is there a reason why you are not considering Btrfs RAID1? It provides
redundancy and checksums to protect against bit errors on either mirror.
Remember that Btrfs RAID1 does not work the same way as mdadm's
alternative.
RAID0 provides no fault tolerance at all. Is there any added performance
you need from RAID0 in your application?
