well after checking out that link i don't think i need a raid setup at all,all i need is a decent 200 gb,after losing my 80gb maxtor full of goodness...what a tragedy...i'm only left with a measly WD 10gb and WD 40gb both old and still goin strong surprisingly..since alot of WD reviews seem terrible,while maxtors
(which i've had several bad experiences with) get great reviews
the 80 GB dead maxtor makes funny clicking noises and wont let any other drives show up when its connected
even if its set as slave and another is at master,it stopped working after i took a 2 month vacation where the pc was off that long
i was wondering if theres any place i can go to possibly recover the data on that drive,i had over 130 playstation 1 games backed up and archived on there,among my own work and projects.
i'm thinkin of getting a samsung or IBM/Hitachir 180gb SATA drive..unless that will require me to use taht raid configuration
is the extra 10 dollars worth SATA features?..its faster right?
