SCSI =
pro = Great reliablity, fast speeds
con = triple the price, need an adaptor card, cables
WD Raptors =
pro = ON the CHEAP, fast, 5 year warrenty, resale value is high, simple install
con = in demand, not as reliable as scsi
I know nothing specfic about scsi. I know I would need an adapter card. Whats the difference in pins? I see 68's and 80's etc. Also I hear seagate is a great brand for them.
I also hear they have great reliability status, I just recently had an old wd ide drive fail, and I'd like another component that I will not need to have to worry about for a while. Mind you I'm looking for at least 10k rpm, 15k would be nice the more gigs the better but I'd be fine with about 50 gb of storage space. (Windows install and some games)
Help me write the pro's and cons out!
Thanks
