High end consumer SSDs can do closer to 15 GB/s, though only with PCI-e gen 5. On a motherboard with two m.2 slots that's potentially around 30GB/s from disk. Edit: How fast everything is depends on how much data needs to get loaded from disk which is not always everything on MoE models.

Would RAID zero help here?

		Yes, RAID 0 or 1 could both work in this case to combine the disks. You would want to check the bus topology for the specific motherboard to make sure the slots aren't on the other side of a hub or something like that.
