I vote this the winner so far... nice...

Thanks... That was a long time comming for me. I used to blow any extra computer money on my crunchers.

But then I got smart, and now they just get second hand hardware. 🙂

I included a couple edits in the quote. "RAID0" In case that wasn't obvious.

I know, that's why I have anything important backed up on the 200 GB set. The 200's aren't active 24/7 due to the fact that I have to downclock the bus to use them. SATA 1 and 2 aren't locked at 66MHz. So I don't use them when I'm overclocking... 98% of the time. I would have went RAID 0+1, but then I would loose 100 GB (and have to downclock). So I have to manually back up anything important.

The fastest I can run with thoose two drives active is 11*220... 2420 MHz

Hopefully I will have a newer A64 here in 4-6 weeeks with a quest for 2.8+ghz....Happy with the vid card since I really dont game. I could use faster drivers and maybe some sort opf RAID config...Likely get a card for that and put another raptor on it with the first one....
