Hard drive question

[arnold023]

would i notice a difference in game play with modern PC games between these two different hard drives?...
Western Digital Raptor WD360GD 36.7GB Serial ATA 10,000RPM Hard Drive w/8MB Buffer and Serial ATA Signal Cable Bundle

Seagate Barracuda 7200.8 ST3200826AS 200GB 7200 RPM 8M Cache Serial ATA150 Hard Drive

the raptor would be faster but you would run out of storage very quickly. imo, the price premium isn't worth it for a few second difference in select few apps. only get a 10000rpm hd if everything else on your pc is already top of the line. most of the time a 7200rpm hd is just fine for day to day usage (the exception would be if you have to encode video real-time)

I wish i hadn't bought the 36 gig raptor - aint enough.

Not that much of a speed difference.
