I am putting together a new build & will be using a Seagate 7200.10 400GB SATA2.0 for the data disk. I want to buy another HDD to be used for the OS & Programs, also SATA.
All I really need is an 80GB drive for the OS, but I am interested in speed. It's not worth it to me to spend the $150-$200 for a Raptor, since I believe the real-world benefit to be quite small - therefore not worth the price premium.
Which SATA drive would be the best bang-for-the-buck Boot drive.
Please support your recommendations.
