I've got a 18GB Seagate Cheetah 15,000rpm U320 SCSI, with compatable card and self terminating cord.

I don't use them, if one of you are looking for a reallly fast drive for your OS or a program, I'll sell...
 
Um... could I install just the OS on a small drive at 15,000 rpm like that and install everything else on two raptors in RAID 0 to make things faster? I mean, would it speed things up to have JUST windows stuff on a small speedy hard drive like that?
 
it was only friendly fire, nothin serious and this was even explained. No one really cares about two friends messin with each other. There is much more serious information and discussion in this thread. But hey, you're the moderator and you know whats best for EVERYONE.

the monitor is flat screen and as good as CRT monitor. I have room for one 6800gt left. I wont use that til later on. I get one now and when I need a new graphics card then all I gotta do is go buy another ( by then really cheap) 6800ft.
 
lol it's a really really long graphics card what can I say!?! That is why it is the best in the world. It has over a mile worth of technology on it. The problem is that I can't use it in a comp lol.
