i dont think cache will bring significant improvement to hdd, maybe just a little bit?

from my humble opinion, the hdd rpm speed always come 1st, imagine a 7200 rpm with 32mb cache hdd vs 10000 rpm with 8mb cache hdd, for sure the 10K rpm hdd beat that 7200 rpm drive all the way round.

can you be more detail about the rpm? a noob here...

When will the Seagate 1.5TB arrive to malaysia?

rpm means revolution per minutes.for more, ask uncle google.

i know what is RPM lah duh.. what i want is his further explanation why higher RPM mean HDD higher speed.. how to relate it...

wahlau eh...search properly at Garage Sale > [Memory & Drives]

U will see at least 2 seller sell below RM400

Higher rpm means ur harddisk spin more fast la...result in faster in accessing data(read/write etc)...improve performance..

common sense la

yea..but 10k and 15k rpm cost u so much..

Anyone here running on RAID-0? It is really a huge performance leap than being single?

I'm still thinking if I should get another 500GB to RAID it with my current one

Speaking about rpms, from old thread...

So where to find them cause its really dam rare when I tried to scout for it. Most that exist was those below 160GB.

Is Seagate 1.5TB available in Lowyat at the moment?? Can someone help me to find out? I need to get one of this as soon as possible..

startec, viewnet, czone, pczone all dun have until today.
but external got wd 2tb.

i used to.....

to compare...

single WD250gb vs 2xseagate 320gb RAID-0

alot of difference... loading times are significantly faster...

but sadly one of the 320GBs died on me (few months only somemore)...lucky i managed to image my windows into a new HDD... which is the WD640gb

raid0 vs wd 640gb....raid0 faster...but not by much...the wd640gb is damn good...performance on par with ur 7200.11

so imagine how fast ur 7200.11 on raid0

only problem with raid0....HDDs tend to die sooner

wargh....
i really2 dont understand raid0...!
drooling reading urs comment bout raid0....

i'm waiting 4 the 2TB hard disk instead

WHy raid-0 will die faster?

dats oso run in my mind...
most ppl do raid0, hdd failure will come across...
y r??

Lol whats this raid about...i am still new in it....My motherboard says i have raid....but what in the world is it?

1.5TB also not yet arrive here U wait for 2TB . I rather buy 2x1TB

i have a problem here.. im using a sata 2 maxtor 160 Gb HDD... it will sound like restarting itself when the comp is running every few minutes but no error happen... this happen after i upgraded to Vista... windows xp wont have this problem... can anyone help? thanks
