Idk is it me or is this a pretty useless article? I don't know many people going 16 drives. There is enough confusion with picking one of the readily available drives on the market. I used to love this site but now it has become a joke. Best of media is a terrible idea and all the ads are simply getting annoying. A better review would be a roundup of current drives, your old one hasn't been updated. I'm just a little upset that I check this site daily for the caliber of information that you used to give and instead keep finding things that are of no use to the main consumer. This site used to be so much better. How about a round up the tastes spindle drives vs SSd, not the old article that was done before but something updated, like raptors vs revo drives, vs in vs vertex 3? That is something that is worth a read. How about a performance scaling with a SSd boot drive with an attached spindle raid, vs sing drive configurations. Sorry to rant, believe me I used to love his site, since the 90's but I think it is sad that I am finding better info from other tech sites.
Really let down by this article.
