Basically I'm looking to spend about £200 on a harddisk update, I have all the space I need so preformance is the target, sooooo what would you have? Are there more options? Could I save money and still get pretty much the same thing? =/

Options:-
- OCZ Vertex 30GB x2 in Raid 0
- OCZ Vertex Series 60GB
- WD VelociRaptor 150GB x2 in Raid 0
- Other?

I would recommend the OCZ Vertex in Raid 0 if performance is the goal. I personally would go with the Raptors if it was me though (price/gb). Good luck let us know what you decide. :toast:
