Title says it all and I can't seem to find any reviews on it, so I was wondering if anyone had used one because I was thinking about picking a couple up for a RAID array on the ICH5R...thanks!

I use the raptors and they are very fast.
I would imagine the 120's are great too.

I'm using the IDE version, you won't get any real difference, but if the price difference isn't much, go for the SATA because of smaller cables.

Ya, I'm not expecting a huge performance difference, just didn't want a performance drop off opposed to the IDE version...gotta love the smaller cables!
