It's good to use a Raptor for your OS and major programs and then get a slower and larger drive for files. My 150gb Raptor is plenty big enough to run all my programs ( I still have over 60gb left, even with all the movies and music on my system). I do plan on getting one of the Seagate 1T drives for all my file storage needs and that will be sufficient for right now.ZombieSlayer wrote:Ya know I've always wondered about something since the uber big hd's started coming out.
Wouldn't it still be faster to use 2 smaller high rpm drives than 1 uber big one?
Suggestions if possible.

wow what a waste of money all that crap. If I got all that stuff, it wouldnt be from them. Id get it from the person who makes the least amount of profit on the stuff before I get it.
