I'm running low on space on my 160gb hard drive because I messed it up. (Unallocated space, blah blah blah), I have heard about RAID 0 being a better set up for PC performance and wondered if there is any significant advantage in gaming with this set up.
If its a good move, what componants would you opt for? I would like at least 250gb but 2 x 250gb hard drives would give me 500gb right? Thanks, skuta. |

For the fast drives (providing you have SATA connections, 99% sure you do)
Seagate Cheetah Western Digital Raptor For the bulk drives I can't fault Samsung Spinpoint 500gb or 1tb drives - HJ501/HD100 or something in the model numbers --------------------  |
