ok thanks, in that case what hd would i get the best performance from, i currently have 4 maxtors for storage so it wouldnt have to be a huge hd, aroud 150gb would be ideal

one of *** best performigng hard drives at the moment if you discount raptors is the western digitall aaks series the fastes is t he 750gb version withe th500gb just slighgtly behind it. the 750gb nearly matches all the performacnes of the raptor with only a slight diffence on *** seek times due to slower spindle speed.

smaller drives tend to be a lil slower strangely enoug but thats mainly cuase most manufatcures making new technology in larger drives soo smaller ones tend to be old tech

thought the smaller drivres would be quicker somehow
