I'm helping a buddy plan out a new build, and we are juggling drive choices. We seem to have ~$440 for drives, and are going back and forth about the size of the SSD, and what the data drives should be. My boy loves VelociRaptors, but he just figured out two Carvair Blacks in a RAID 0 would be "better".
A RAID 0 is good for throughput, but what about I/0 (which my buddy says he likes)?
Or maybe the question should be "Would you rather have a 256GB SSD and a RAID 0 made out a' two 500GB Carviars, or a 128GB SSD and a VelociRaptor?"
