Upgrade to a bigger drive, sell the old one, or throw it in your laptop ;)

SSD's are by nature highly parallel, and although RAID does increase the speed of the drives, the drawbacks limit you a lot as well. When you take in to account the fact that (by the natural parallelism) larger SSD's are inherently faster anyways, it makes little sense to raid 2x60gb vs getting a 120+gb drive.
