When I left for college last year I decided that I didn't need a desktop, and that I'd manage to live with a laptop. Well, I made it a whole five months but now I've changed my mind.
I'm building the system listed above later this week, and I have everything nailed down except for storage. The situation is as follows: I have about 400.00 left in my budget to spend. I currently have a 150GB Raptor which I pulled from the system I gave to my dad... What would be my best bet as far as far as storage goes. Should I sell the raptor and get four 500GB drives? Should I keep the raptor and get two 500GB drives and run them in raid 1 until I can afford two more?
Thanks.
- GIGABYTE GA-P35-DS3R
- E6750
- 4GB G.Skill PC2-6400
- 7300 LE [to be upgraded at later date]
