Which Hard Drive to go for?
Hi,
I want to buy as new hard drive but have a dilemma: I have the following options: 1) Buy 1X 160GB SATA hard drive - $130 2) Buy 2X 80GB EIDE drives and use RAID - $110 3) Buy 2X 80GB SATA hard drive and use RAID - $160 Between the first 2, does SATA go faster than EIDE RAID or does EIDE RAID go quicker than a serial ATA solution. Depending on which you recommend from the 1st 2, is it worth the price difference to get the 3rd option. Its almost $50 more. Please advise on which of the above I should look into, or, if you have more recommendations, please let me know. Thank you |
