what hard drive format would you choose for $300?
Dear pc geniuses. I currently have 2 hard drives with a raid controller. 1 hd is 10 gb, the other is 60 (7200 rpm IDE. I would like to have a very fast setup for around $300. What would you do?

iif you have 300 dollars to spend on it, i would buy a 36 gig raptor they go for around 90 dollars and i would also buy a 200GB drive for storage..
edit-how did you RAID 2 different model hard drives together?

WD 36.7GB 10k Raptor
Maxtor 300GB 16MB cache I wouldn't use RAID at all. I would use the Raptor for my OS, and the Maxtor for all my games and everything else.
