    Which HD should I use?
    « on: December 28, 2010, 09:30:56 AM »
    I want an OS HD.  Just have OS and applications and some games on it.  All other data goes on data drives.

    VelociRaptor
    10,000 rpm
    16mb cache
    150gb
    sata 3.0 gb

    or

    WD
    7,200 rpm
    64mb cache
    500gb
    sata 3.0 gb

    It's basically 10k rpm +16cache vs 7200rpm+64cache.

    Who wins for desktop/gaming PC...OS/Application drive?

    Thanks!

      ps
      the 7200 is $20 cheaper.

      or i could knock off another $20 and get the 7200 w/32mb cache
