Western Digital Raptor 150 Gb 10K SATA Hard Drive
Data Mark:
Although the Raptor hard drive has a slower average transfer speed and burst rate, it more than makes up for it with seek times. It is important to know that hard drives are application and use dependant. If you are planning to use the hard drive on a day to day basis and put an operating system on it, then going with the Raptor might be a better idea. If you are planning on using the hard drive to store large files that would not be altered for quite a while, it would be a better idea to go with the slower cheaper hard drives which will have greater spacial capacity.
Conclusion:Newegg prices the Western Digital Raptor hard drive at $169.99 which is definitely a good choice if you are looking for a high performance system and you have quite a bit of money saved up. The best idea would be to buy another one and create a RAID array. If you are planning on building a cheaper system or just looking for more space per buck, you will definitely be better off purchasing a 750 GB Western Digital hard drive for $129.99 (newegg.com), meaning that you will spend less money and get much more storage space.
