Okay, that's what I was curious about. So would you recommend getting a couple of smaller drives for the RAID 0 and a larger 320gb one for the backup?
For example,
get 2 of these for RAID 0:
Seagate Barracuda 7200.10 ST3160815AS 160GB 7200 RPM SATA 3.0Gb/s Hard Drive - OEM
Average Latency: 4.16ms
Average Seek Time: 11ms
Average Write Time: 12ms
Cache: 8MB
and this one for the backup:
Seagate Barracuda 7200.10 ST3320620AS (Perpendicular Recording Technology) 320GB 7200 RPM SATA 3.0Gb/s Hard Drive - OEM
Average Latency: 4.16ms
Average Seek Time: 8.5ms
Average Write Time: 10ms
Cache: 16MB
Or is that overkill and I should just get 3 of the 160gb drives?
Or should I skip the whole RAID setup and just go with the 2 seagate 320gb.
