good fast and quite HDD?
I'm looking for a pair of disks to use in a raid 0 setup.
I was thinking of going for a couple of raptors but I hear they're quite noisy and since this is planned to be a audio studio workstation, I need them to be as silent as possible. On the other hand, I already have a couple of seagate SATA 80 GB 7200rpm 8MB cache disks so I really need something faster. Capacity is not an issue as long as they're at least 70GB a piece, but if possible 100GB + would be better. thanks |

had no idea that even existed.. thanks.
Still not sure which disk to take, though. But I guess raptor is now a viable option. KlausK wrote: "Rayn" wrote in message ... I'm looking for a pair of disks to use in a raid 0 setup.

I have a pair of 74s in one machine and a 150 in the other. |
