320GB Runs 160STWs and 140STRs with nearly twice the performance of hte vertex 2 in .5-2K.

$43 for a 320GB drive from newegg today.

Not big enough?

How about a 2TB drive using 3 667GB platters and a rosewill dock for $110?

(cant find a review on the 2TB yet though)

Might have to sell my raptors and get some of them 320s

LOL My mistake

Still 20-80% better than a vertex2 at .5-2K speeds though.

17,33,65 thousand for the vertex 2 on ICH10R

How are your OCZ Solid2 SSD's doing Honda? Last time I checked all 3 were dead, funny too, barely a year old and they failed on you, but without there moving parts there life expediency is twice that of a clunky old Hard Drive... oh wait thats right you ended up using my old clunky hard drive to replace your dead SSD's

its fne...troubleshooting is my job....

you'll find tools and ways why one drive takes 4minutes to copy 4gb..and one drive to copy it in 20seconds...
