Hi, I was looking into upgrading options for my computer and I was wondering which one is faster: 2 ATA 100 drives in a RAID array or 1 SATA drive. In other words does:

(2x100MB/s) > (1x150MB/s)?

Thanks.

The burst speed will be alittle faster with sata but I doubt anything will be noticable. The tranfer rates on either interface will be WELL below that interface speed so either interface will be just fine.
