New HDD setup

[Wibble12345]

I am pondering over a hard drive setup for my new PC.

Do i use an 80gb IDE for windows with 2 160gb WD AAKS in RAID1
or just 2 320gb AAKS in RAID1

I only have 2 SATA conections on my MOBO

How much space do you use?

I would say 2 x 250gb should be enough. Raid 0 Stripe

OR 1 x 80gb / 1 x 500gb OS=80gb files=500gb

I am going to be using my pc mostly for 3d CAD as well as gaimng, so i like the idea of raid1 for the CAD
