Okay, I tried uninstalling Lenovo Energy Management and it did not help. The stutter and freeze-ups were still prevalent. I did some testing to see if it was the games' or hardware's' problem. I set CS:GO and LoL to my Integrated Graphics Processor and there were no stutters/freeze-ups as opposed to when using the Nvidia GPU. Does anyone have insight on this? I have contacted Lenovo about this and they insist it's game's fault.

I have the same exact issue as you do, but on my Lenovo Y580. I'll play games that I should be able to run with no issues, but I get these weird stutters or moments where my laptop doesn't respond and all input fails to be read. I'm still trying to figure out why it's doing this, but no luck so far. I'm hoping it's just something wrong with software, will let you know if I can find anything out.

As Khatarian said, going RAID 0 with SSD's isn't going to be too different for what you intend to do. You probably won't see that much of a difference from RAID 0 compared to a single SSD in real time. Another good point Khatarian said is the headaches with RAID sometimes.

I'd say use one SSD for your OS, and the other SSD for any frequently accessed apps/games. That way, in the event one of your SSD's blow up, your RAID won't completely be demolished and you'll either lose your OS, or a few games/apps.
