Samsung F3 500gb vs 1TB?

[spleenharvester]

I only use ~120gb as it is, but my WD1600AAJS is lagging behind pretty badly and I need to upgrade.

I've noticed the 1TB version's on special so I was considering that too.

Will the 1tb version perform better than the 500gb version? Any better suggestions?

Cheers

EDIT: Or am I better off RAID0'ing these? http://www.overclockers.co.uk/showproduct.php?prodid=HD-215-SE Or maybe short stroking? So many options...

Hmm, I'm thinking F3 500gb then. Then again it's only £5/6 extra for 1TB... I'm not sure

Short stroking has little benefit apparently, and there's no point RAID0'ing another drive with mine as I don't trust mine not to blow up on me.

Apparently 2 of those Seagates for £50 can RAID0@220mb/s, now I'm just stuck for choice

So 500gb or those two 250gb Seagates, which one?
