Hey, i bought a 7200rpm IDE HDD a couple years back. it has a measly 2mb cache. I now understand that is pathetic. that was my first build i didnt know squat about hdds. im still not as elite as i want to be, obviously, as im turning to you for insight.
my burst speed was 123mb/sec is that pretty lame?
graphs scores
1.5 gb i scored 55mb/sec
60 gb i got 30mb/sec
Would there be a noticable increase in my gaming and windows start up times? Most importantly, you think its worth the extra 75-100 bucks to my system? I was thinking of catchin a 36.7 for cheap on ebay and using the ide as a storage drive. i only play a couple games at a time.
