You see a lot of 5400 rpm hard drives for pretty low prices. I'm wondering what would give faster hard drive performance, 2 5400rpm harddrives in a raid set up, or one 7200rpm hard drive? Raid is pretty cheap-often right on the mobo.
the 2x5400rpm drives (if in RAID 0) will beat the 7200rpm drive in most tests. and those "cheap" ones are software raid which means higher CPU utilization.
