I'm putting asystem together around the Intel SE7505VB2 and since it has SATA but drives are expensive I'm a little caught on how to have the speed to do NLE and large census data set queries.
Intel SE7505VB2
Perhaps I could spring for one Raptor WD360GD to put the OS/Apps on and two less expensive 120 SE's on EIDE, one for data the other as a scratch disk to render to. The other EIDE channel for a CD-RW drive and DVD-R.
Later as prices come down build a SATA RAID 0 for data and SATA RAID 1 for OS/Apps and possibly one EIDE SE for a scratch disk. Permanent storage of finished work could be burned to DVD/CD-R.
Thanks for the input. Steve.
