More Information

I am looking for a hard drive that has fast load times. I have 2 Seagate ES.2 250GB in a RAID 0 and for some reason its really slow. My raid cache was 64 and I also tried 128. It took an hour to load vista. With my old 80gb hitachi drive with 8mb cache was faster. It takes vista over 2 minutes to start up. I was looking to get a wdc 640gb drive to replace what I have. Any suggestions?
