Hey guys can you recommend 2 identical HDD for a raid set-up....Want them to be fast .....eg WD Black (500 *2 raid 0 array) or others but in that price range!

Another question bout a cpu cooler to cool a 965 so i can overclock to 4GHz at least.......How bout the V8 ?

If the drives are for storage, to be honest they're much of muchness. Reliability seems dedent and pretty flat across the board at the moment (meh :/ at least the deathstars gave us something to talk about).

If you want performance, save up for an SSD.

Hello phytal, not seen you around for a while.

WD black is the obvious choice.
The sunbeam if money is an issue, the true if it isn't. You might like the H50.

Here is a useful thread about just the cooler you're after
