the 7200.12 is the way to go with out a doubt...

I have touched and tested more hard drives in the last 12 months then most people have seen in their life time

and the guy that said they are great in a raid 0 is right... they real really really come alive

wow thank you all. I actually got a deal on ebay for the Samsung F3 500gb around $60 shipped. Should i?

I respect n-ster and I think caviar black would be really nice but the F3 and Seagate are cheaper overal so I would go with either of them.

The F3 will be from ebay, so should i risk it or go with the Seagate from buy.com?
