Yeah, the raptors are the best sata/ide disks available. too bad the access time gets a twist from raid 0.

speed of a raid system depends pretty much on the controller used. however; the onboard intel ICHxR seem to preform pretty good for desktop use/applications.

In most cases the hdd is the reason why computers are feeling slow.. Can't have enough speed in the disks IMO.. (nor stability) what are you using for backup? I'm pretty keen on Acronis.
