    Websense

    Remote desktop. It's a slow internet connection because your DL speed is based on your upload speed at home but better then nothing. You need port 80 and 3389 open @ home (though port 3389 can be changed if you desire). The account must be password protected to log in via remote desktop...

    I bought 2 RaptorX's, benchmarked them (in RAID0, using real world benchmarks) and found them to be about 7% faster then my RAID0 w/ 2x250GB 7200RPM 8MB hdds (if you ask SATA-I or SATA-II, you really shouldn't even reply to this thread).
