WD raptor or some 10k/15k scsi drives, if you're really serious about it.

larger drives can actually be faster then smaller drives

a newer larger drive will have a higher data density on the the platters, meaning it will read more data per revolution

i agree with the newer WD raptors, they are the fastest drives out there for consumers, but keep in mind that the older raptors are slower then newer normal drives

id say a new drive with high platter density should work perfectly

Hitachi Deskstar 1 TB or the WD7500AAKS.

Seagate is the slowest shit you can buy. Forget them.

Please support this statement.

OP: Look at the WD5000AAKS and the T7K500. Two capable disks at 500 gigs in the $100-120 price range.

I hardly call ~70MB+ a average reads the slowest shit you can buy...

Either support your claims, or don't post crap like this

There is more than one model of WD 500gb. Which one to get ?
