Currently I have a sole spinpoint F3 500Gb which I have managed to fill up so looking for a new storage solution and am considering 2 things but have a question about each option:

1) Getting a second spinpoint and raiding them, i assume to raid 2 disks I will have to wipe them 1st? Also should I be matching the 2nd drive ie 500Gb and same cache?

2) An external HD for media. My system supports E-Sata which I beleive is 3 times faster than USB2 but looking on the overclockers pages no external HDDs show they support E-sata, am I missing something?

Please note I don't think I can justify the cost of a SSD as I jump between games so much I would never know which to stick on the SSD.
