Can't see the raid bens really. 2x74gb to 1x150gb?

[Reality Bites]

I'm going to build a new rig over xmas into a sugo or similar SFF.

I've currently got 2x74gb raptors in raid0. I was going to change to 1 150gb raptor x but is it really worth it?

Would i be better selling the raptors and getting a standard 7400spin disk and more space?

I have three of the 74Gigs in Raid 0 and 1 150 - Always use the 3 for windows disk - so much faster... would like to have more 74gigs tbh... although I supposed 6 150s would be pretty damn amazing - that's the kind of cash i don't have lol

i wouldn't have thought 3 in raid 0 would be much faster than 2? maybe a little.

I don't really need the boost of raid anymore, but then is it worth paying out for a big single raptor when standard sata disks are pretty quick nowadays anyway.

i'm going to get one or 2 big disks (300-400gb) for storage so my 'other' disk is only used for windows and apps.
