I've had two 36gb raptors in raid-0 in the main comp for a few years now. Hard drives just don't do that much unless you're big into video editing, or hosting ----.

^ Depsite their 10,000-15,000rpm spindle speeds & the associated higher numerical transfers.
SCSI SUCKS MAJOR *** for desktop computers. Their firmware is nowhere near optimized for use outside of mass server-ville. What you should take from that, is that unless you're running a server getting large amounts of completely random requests...

A basic, good performance 7,200rpm desktop drive will preform FASTER than you 15,000rpm SCSI drive unless that is a server, of major video editing computer. I doubt you're surfing forums on a file server active enough to constitute SCSI.
Good convorsation piece, but it means crap.
