So I was thinking of getting one of those Western Digital Raptor hard drives. I have a SATA at 7200 RPM, but I was wondering how much of a difference it would be to have a Raptor at 10,000 RPM?
It would probably be cheaper to get another HDD (exactly the same as the one you have) and put them into Raid0. Doing this you would effectively have one 15,000rpm drive.
^No...Two of his hard drives in RAID 0, is close to that of a 10k rpm drive. IMO, raptors aren't necessary. For only a couple of seconds faster loading time, you'll spend so much more, than just getting another hard drive, or RAIDing them.
