Well the HD that my BSD box is running on is about dead. Its a old 800 meg drive anyways. So I am going to move the drive on this machine (30 gig 7200 RPM Maxtor) over to that BSD box. And I am going to buy two new 30 or 40 gig drives for this machine. They will be running in a raid. I wanted something like a westerdigital special edition but well it's smalled is a 80 gig. So does anyone know of some great performing 40 drives?

I like my new Seagate Barricuda IV. Its fast and quiet, and with the Disk wizard software its a breeze to partition and format.

forcesho - Thanks for the heads up on the warranty. I guess I will go and buy then soon. I need the HD room. I just found some old developer copies of Open Step and Rhapsody. And I make a ISO image of all my CDs for backup perposes, so I am running out of room anyways.
