losing all your data in an environment that requires military grade hardware (as quoted from the source) is going to be more expensive, than an SSD.

actually, i screwed up.i posted in two thread at the same time and thought this was the other one. if you look in the news posts, right next to this one is one about a rugged 'military quality' mechanical external drive.

my bad!


in the context of this thread, yes SSD's are expensive... but they wont get cheaper without people making them, and 1.8" e-sata drives seems cool to me.

No fucking way dude, I will definitely be going 2X RAID0 32GB SSD drives VERY soon, and I'm the conservative, 'screw more performance til it's cheap!' type! I'd still pay $200 to see game maps load 'instantly' as some people in COD4 games have put it. I want that, and I'll pay whatever it takes.

I still think the specs/speeds for Patriot SSD's are the best on the market though.

32GB raid 0 sounds nice... unless you're someone like me who has 52GB of games installed along with abunch of other stuff... 64GB raid 0 would be okay, but for $400 it just doesnt seem worth it.

i'm quite sure you could decide which games belong on SSD raid and which dont, if you had to choose. Perhaps putting the slowest ones on teh SSD's til they were full, hmm?
