great graphs, impressive "maximum value" but .. hmm .. it seems to me it's a little value @ average speed (128MB/s) while a single velociraptor has 104 and two have 204MB/s while 4 have 380MB/s it's clear for me now, the difference between raptor and vraptor, big one i can say. Trully, the...

unfortunately there are no 5's in my country yet in any store's stock, and some prices (only by ordering) are between 400 E and 550 E while a VR is 250 E (same capacity, 300GB) i belive you that 5's are faster but for the moment i think i'll go on the VR's ... it's already "better than needed"...

thanks but hmm ... i'm totally lost now (from tomshardware) why would a Seagate Cheetah / SAS / 10.000 rpm be faster than a Seagate Cheetah / SAS / 15.000 rpm ?! results from h2benchw say that WriteTransfer Performance on those is 75-80 MB/s (VelociRaptor @ hdtune had 104MB/s, saw here, on...

500 euros for the hdd's i mean :) the total budget is about 2600E. I'm making a server wich should do many different things as I don't wanna use multiple computers (this means less power consumption/noise/wasted space etc). It should do this: Hosting: game-servers (counter-strike/warcraft...

didn't see those hdd's in any store in my country :| the idea with the SATA drives was 6 500 GB RE2's @ RAID 10 ... speed+mirroring nitrobass24, what Raptors are you refering to ? Yes, the Raptor itself isn't so fast, Raptor X is faster and VelociRapter is on top of all, at least this is...

Hi, i wanna buy a Thermaltake PSU (i'm a fan) but i don't know how "big" it should be It should keep these up: 2 x Intel Xeon Quad-Core 2,5 GHz 16 GB DDR2 (8x2GB) - Kingston ValueRAM ECC Fully Buffered 3 WD VelociRaptor hdd's 1 DVD-RW ASUS MB (DSBF-DE, onboard video/audio/lan) I was...
