2 RAID0 arrays :rockout:

Nice!!

Within the next couple of weeks this will be changing to two 320GB SE16s in RAID0.

I would recommend two Seagate 7200.12 in RAID0.

Single Platter.

LittleLizard · Apr 7, 2009

Disk Alpha = 94 GB free out of 149 (Os and Games)
Disk Beta = 6.24 free out of 37.2 (Old games and software)
Disk Delta = 21.2 free out of 111 (Stuff, :rolleyes:

)

That's why I'm limiting myself to the 320s, they are single-platter drives too. :rockout:

And I'm officially anti-Seagate, a Seagate hater, a WD fanboy, yes yes, it's true

I did not know they were single platters too. :slap:

I am a Seagate fanboy LOL :laugh:

Though they seem to be letting me down lately, and the WD Blacks are pretty sick.

SkyKast · Apr 7, 2009

yep yep WD all the way

Play3r · Apr 7, 2009

Yes Dual Raid 0 very sexy, planning on getting another of the seagate 1.5TB and hardware raiding it through some onboard thing

I reckon Samsung are making some pretty good harddrives these days but noone really takes much notice of them because i guess WD and Seagate are the main ones

Polarman · Apr 7, 2009

Disk 1 - 74GB WD Raptor (C = Vista OS + Programs, D = Games)
Disk 2 - 74GB WD Raptor (E = Games)
Disk 3 - 250GB WD Caviar SE (F = Data + Backup)

WTH?? 1.4TB total/11.6GB Free Definately time for some new drive space.

LMAO!!!

Yea when my next paycheck comes around I'll be buying a 1 Terra WD RE for OS/Apps and Games, and a 2 Terra :respect:

for all my media. I'm planing on storing the current drives in a safe place for backup purposes, I'll consider buying a second Terra for RAID 1 once they come down in price a little bit.

Ohhhh man, sorry to hear that. And yesterday I was actually thinking of 7200.12s (known to be more reliable than the .11s) as a viable alternative to a couple of SE16s... not anymore! Just reading the reviews on Newegg of the Seagate drives gives me goosebumps.

3dsage · Apr 10, 2009

300GB VelociRaptor = (OS, Games, PRogs, some Movies)
2x80 Samsung SV0802N's = (Pics, Storage ,etc)

Gonna get me another VRaptor, eventually and Run it in Raid Array.

160GB Western Digital Caviar SE: 370MB Free
80GB Western Digital Caviar: 3.12GB Free
4GB Kingston microSD Card: 198MB Free

Once I get the Samsung drive I'll install Vista onto that and move all my files over to it and wipe the 80GB drive and put it into a spare computer then sell it

road-runner · Apr 10, 2009

Here is my main rig. A 150Gb Raptor/1.5Tb Seagate and a 2Tb Western Digital Green Drive...

Yukikaze · Apr 10, 2009

Main Rig:

Not currently used:
Western Digital 200Gb
Western Digital 160Gb (IDE)
2 x Seagate 80Gb (1 SATA, 1 IDE)

5976GB free and that isn't counting my desktop or laptop.

BrooksyX · Apr 12, 2009

I have 700gb spread across 3x 250gb HDDs in raid 0. I wanna add a 4th just for the heck of it.

Not really :ohwell:

The most important stuff I put on my laptop.

I don't really have anything that important. Just papers for school, which I put on my laptop. So if I had a HDD crash the only thing I would lose is my game saves.

I do need to invest in a portable HDD. I almost bought one a few days ago when newegg had a 160gb wdd for the shell shocker deal.

A Cheese Danish · Apr 12, 2009

Desktop: about 2GB's :laugh:

I got 2 640GB WD's coming though

Laptop: about 127GB
