Im thinking of adding another HDD to my PC, and was wondering some of the options.
External USB, id probably want to buy the enclosure and probably a 200-250gb HDD. Itd be using USB 2.0 or whatever, so i dont think speed should be THAT much of an issue (data only). for anyone with experience, is this a good plan?
also, ive heard of raid, and my brother has the soyo dragon that has raid, and he has like 6 HDDs + CD...and its like..hey, i want that. ive also heard though that the raid just doubles up drives to help with backup or speed, is this true, or can it be used as additional drives?
