I finally posted my results comparing 2 Raptors in RAID0 and how it stacks up to just one Raptor in a single drive configuration. I know my reviewing skills aren't that of a professional, but I threw this together during my lunch break today from my Excel spreadsheet of my results,

I've had a number of people ask for these results, so maybe it could be stickied for a little while?
 
Doesn't matter -- pro or not, it looks good and should say much about the RAID 0. RAID 0 = Not exactly a winner. A single drive seems awesome enough. However, is the 74 GB Raptor faster than the 36's? I haven't done any reviewing on that. I can pretty much conclude in my own head that I can clearly stay away from RAID 0.

Best System For Gamers:
1x WD 74 GB Raptor Drive
1x WD 200+ GB Hard Drive

All the data-loading stuff on the 74 GB. All the porn on the 200+ GB. Well, I'm just making an example. :cool:

A few reviews I saw said the newer 74 GB Raptor was a little faster than the 36 GB. Not to mention, if your definitely running a single drive, it's double the capacity of the 36 GB.
