Is the raptoor a good buy then? Worth the money as an OS drive?

Why is the external less than the internal?? makes no sense lol

[DJF]

Its a 24/7 raid drive with imporved filters and bearings for increased reliability. These drives have a 5 year warranty and would be what you would find in any decent SATA based server.

[anti5580]

Wondering if anyone can give me a bit of insight on this ... I currently got a WD Raptor 74Gb, is it worth buying another one and RAID0 them?

[johnckeen]

so i could buy the external one and take the drive out of it? or is it sealed

[DJF]

Well no, because

1. They are now all sold
2. it would be a bit pointless as you could buy a 500GB internal drive cheaper,

[johnckeen]

ah ok didnt check there!
cheers :)

[DJF]

Yeah definatly a good shout for a boot drive! Not only will windows start faster but you will notice the computer is more responsive when your working in windows

Thanks I was wondering that myself. :drink:

[koolpc]

What about noise? Are they loud?

[DJF]

No. I have 2 in a raid and i dont hink they are any louder than the average drive.

[Terrum]

Wow i gotta get buying some of these right away :P

[kpkpkp]

Wow i gotta get buying some of these right away :P


If you don't they will be gone by tomorrow - Mr DJF has had the guys in the warehouse working their ***** off today packing these little badboys ready for shipping.

Kp

[Vigoro]

The raptor i picked up earlier is definately a lot faster than the 7200RPM drives i have had before \o/

[UKGouki]

wow some crazy cheap prices why im i broke :(

[mithrandir]

Any tasty offers on skt775 mobos, DDR2 ram, cpu coolers and 3.5" caddies? ;)

[cjph]

Probly an unfair question but would a Raptor or SSD drive be a better gaming bet ? Arma2 is about to hit and the devs say small SSDs are best, but the raptor prices are so tempting . . .

Which Raptor did you buy? Is it a lot faster? Noisey?

[Vigoro]

Got the 36gb one as a boot drive, and it isnt any noisier than the drive i had previously. But it will all depend on what case you are using i think, as my P182 has silicone damper things for the hard drives, which takes away a lot of the resonance which is passed through the case

[koolpc]

Do you find it a lot faster?

[Vigoro]

Yep, applications in windows definately load much quicker, and windows itself loads faster than when it was on my 80gb boot drive which was only 7200 :)

[koolpc]

Thanks for the info.

[cjph]

Another question Vigoro - is there still a Western Digital utility which allows you to transfer a boot disk direct from an older target (ie a 7200rpm SATA disk) to a new drive, such as a ratpor ? Or did you install from scratch.

Thanks.

i would like to know that as im extremely tempted by the 74gb raptor :D

[pwn3rer]

I don't know about a WD Utilty, but there are loads of thing which will mirror the drive...

whether they are then bootable or not I do not know. I ended up just reinstalling :S

[Vigoro]

I just put a fresh install on the drive as it will run better in my opinion, got the old hard drive just running slave

[koolpc]

Western Digital Raptor 74GG 16MG Cache Hard Disk Drive Serial ATA <4.6ms 10,000rpm - OEM

Is that a single platter one?

Yeah i think they are.

[Pixulated]

Woah those are some extreme deals alright, just wish I had more cash at the moment.

[koolpc]

Can someone from Novatech confirm they are the single platter?

[DJF]

Yep these are single platter

[ChrisFromGlasgow]

Sorely tempted with the 36GB one purely as an OS drive...

COME ON PAY DAY YOU SONNOFA*****!!

[Hicks12]

Is it worth paying an extra £20 and getting the 74GB raptor?. Is there any performance differences etc?. Really would be nice to get a better boot drive :).
