I have a Samsung 830 series 256gb SSD as my OS drive. I have the AppData and User folders on my secondary mechanical HDD right now (WD 1tb Green SATA 3gbps 5400RPM). The drive feels sluggish when it needs to be accessed to load App Data or my user folder, either because of spindle speed or SATA 3gbps. It does my SSD no good to be so awesome if the HDD is going to slow it down (I know I have to sacrifice a bit due to HDD nature, but it's a bit on the rediculous side currently), so it's getting replaced. I'm going for 2tb+, SATA 6gbps, 7200RPM.
Which out of these drives would you guys put in your rig (and why if you want)? Or would you recommend a RAID setup with some others drives? If so, which? FYI, I'm running a 2500k on a Gigabyte GA-Z68XP-UD3P.
