Upgrading system due to failed HD. System is 3.5 years old, looking for process speed for video editing, not at all savvy on PCs/builds.
Alienware aurora
Processor, I7-960, 3.2, 8MB, Bloomfield, D0
DUAL IN-LINE MEMORY MODULE, 2G, 1333, 128X64, 8, 240, 2RX8
Dual In-line Memory Module, 1G 1333, 128X64, 8, 240, 1RX8
Had dual HARD DRIVEs; 1TB, S2, 7.2K, SGT-PHAR, which have failed.
Mainly use for video editing, considering replacing both HDs with solid state drives, or possibly a SSD for os/programs and HDD for storage. HDs were RAID 0 striped.
Would greatly appreciate any recommendations on configuration.
Should I upgrade any other components at same time?
