Can these 7200rpm drives even come close to filling the bandwidth? Because I could spend 70 bucks and get the seagate with sata300 or save it and get the wd for 200, and i might buy two drives (400gig) for raid 0 for video work at hella fast speeds =)

Some users have recently had their accounts hijacked. It seems that the now defunct EVGA forums might have compromised your password there and seems many are using the same PW here. We would suggest you UPDATE YOUR PASSWORD and TURN ON 2FA for your account here to further secure it. None of the compromised accounts had 2FA turned on.
Once you have enabled 2FA, your account will be updated soon to show a badge, letting other members know that you use 2FA to protect your account. This should be beneficial for everyone that uses FSFT.

In a multi-user setting NCQ can help:Patman said:
see SR comparison here
However, multi-user in this respect means file-server environment. If I am not mistaken (and I do not know much about video editing) your workload is very sequential in nature, so I would doubt there be much benefit from NCQ.
Yes, the Mobo/ Controller card needs to support NCQ in order to get the benefits from it.

Considering the PCI bus is only 133MB/second, even if it could reach 300MB/second your max would be 133MB/second assuming you are using a controller on the PCI bus.
