ok so im doing an upgrade and i have 2 hard drives.. one is 10,000 rpm and one is 7,200 rpm this rig is a pure gaming rig so i was wondering if you guys could weigh in and let me know if it would be worth it to put the small 36 gig 10k in and run my games off of it and use the 7,200 as storage for things liek music movies and older games that arent hard to run... well let me know here are the specs... but if the results wont be anythign fancy i dont even wanna mess with the dual hard drives so just let me know
