Spend the Raptor money on more RAM instead. Disk performance doesn't
matter for workstations and for file servers you are much better off
getting a 3Ware controller and multiple 7200 RPM disks rather than using
10,000 RPM disks which are much more expensive per megabyte.
Linux, Software RAID, FIC K8-800T, 2x160GB Seagate SATA, I can read/write
approx 110MByte/sec under Linuxc in RAID 0.
