I have them striping, which means they act as one drive, and each raptor need only write half of the information to be written, or search for half of the information to be accessed. The write speed of one is only a bit above average for a fast drive, but the access speed is just insane. Put two of them together, and you have a monster. Only downside to raptors right now is their throughput is still at SATA1 speed. _________________ Fragbox Member Location: Jeffersonville, Indiana Joined: Jun 24, 2006  || Posts: 61     Posted: Wed Apr 11, 2007 10:50 am  NICE!
