What the matter Toaster? Don't have the huge bucks to buy solid state?

Just thought I would throw in that Seagate is going 15,000RPM on a new series of drives

I still remember the first time I set up a server with 4 10,000RPM drives, the whine gave me a headache.... doesn't bother me now though. I can only imagine 4 15k drives spinning in harmony.

If it ain't broke, you're not pushing hard enough!
