I'm have written a PC configuration that I intend to buy within the next month. This will be used basically 80% for gaming. I'm planning to store the vital information on a RAID system however I'm in doubt whether to build the Raid within the PC case or use a NAS (D-Link DNS-323) system.
I would appreciate receiving opinions on this, for example: what are the advantages in each situation, mainly performance.
Just for reference; following is the PC confguration I intend to have:
-XFX nForce 790i Ultra SLI MO
-Intel Core 2 Quad Q9550 processor
-BFG GeForce GTX 260 OC MAXCORE Video Card x 2
-OCZ Gold 4GB (2 x 2GB) 240-Pin DDR3 SDRAM DDR3 1333
-BFGR800WPSULE 800-Watt Power Supply
-Thermaltake VH6000BWS Armor+ Full-Tower ATX Case
-WD Velociraptor 300GB for OS
-Samsung Spinpoint F1 1TB HD x 2 (in RAID 1)
-Win XP 64Bit or Vista 64Bits
