I hate my Raptor. It's not that fast (coming from SCSI and Caviar SE).

So, would buying a 7200 SATA drive make sense given their comparatively low price?

I can get twice as much storage at the same price, more or less.

This is a SCSI drive with a SATA interface, it's far from new technology. SCSI has been around for a long time...

Yeah, and not a few months either...

(<-- my turn) More like 10-15 odd years or more).
