So since I built my computer, which was back in the winter of 2005, I've finally come to that point where my 250GB hard drive just isn't enough anymore. The model I bought back then was a Hitachi Deskstar T7K250. Now, though I've never tried a raid configuration before, I'm relatively confident that I'd be able to manage it, but I was wondering whether or not it would be more beneficial to me to buy another Deskstar and set up Raid, or if I would be better off just buying a faster 500GB hard drive. Where would the performance trade off be? And if I should just go with an entirely new hard drive altogether, what 500GB model would be best? I would just need a standard speed of 7200RPMs, 15,000 for me is just overkill. My system specs are..
AMD X2 3800+(skt939)
2x512 Corsair Value Select Ram
eVGA 6800GS (pci-e)
1x250GB HDD (15 GB left ><)
Asus A8N-E (motherboard)
thanks in adv.
