Raptor questions

[essi1553]

Ok im thinking about getting 1 / or 2 raptors but I ahve some questions

The one im looking at are 8 mb 74gb versions, when are the 16mb versions coming out and about how much will they be?

Is there a big difference between just having one drive and having 2 drives in raid?


I noticed the new black packaging, is there any difference in the actual drive?

Thanks
