currently i am running 1 X SATA 36gig 8mb WD raptor as my main disk and a 200 gig SATA seagate barracuda as secondary. i have been given 2 x 250 gig SATA Maxtor Maxline 3 hard drives and as i now own a DFi board i am thinking about raiding them and using as the main drive over the raptor.


would you:
A) raid the 2X 250`s and get wrid of the old model raptor,
B)keep the raptor as the main drives and use the 2X 250 in a raid format as a secondary drive
C) keep the raptor as the main drives and use the 2X 250`s as a second and third drive
 
i just got myself a 150GB raptor,to replace my primary 2x36GB raptor raid-0 array or moving raid-0 to a less volatile role. also have NCQ with my NF4 chipset, might as well use it, right?

my advice would largely depend on your primary use, and also are you talking raid-1 or raid-0, cause there's a huge difference.
