Hey eveyone got a interesting question.....
I am upgrading my system tomorrow and need a little advice....
In my currant system I have 5 hard drives.
2x 80 gig Seagate SATAII drives ( RAID 0 ) C: Drive)
2x 250 gig WD SATA 150 drives (RAID 0 ) Media Storage)
1x 300 gig Maxtor SATAII SATdrive (System Backup)
As you can see I use the above 2x 80 gigs in the RAID 0 array for my system disk (Windows XP)
Sitting on my storage shelf I have a 74 gb WD Raptor drive that I was interested in using when I set my new system up tomorrow. However I wanted to know if I would notice any increased performance using the single Raptor drive for Windows over the SATAII RAID 0 Array......
Id prefer to keep using my two 80 gigs in RAID 0 but (being 2xtimes more space then the raptor) if the single Raptor will compliment my new Core 2 Duo E6600 and DDR800 better I will probably use it.
Any opinions would be great.....
Thanks in Advance. !!!!
