Hey guys, I have a few quick questions. I am going to be building a new system soon and I want to get the HDD's now. I want to get 2 drives and raid them for main OS. I really have been out of the loop for a while so what are some options and drives? I want it to be fast. I want games to load fast and not be a bottleneck. I've heard of something called "short stroke"?? And what raid would be best? Matrix, raid 0?
I was thinking maybe the 640 blacks cause of using 2 platters but I see people say the 1tb black is faster even with 3 platters. I dont really need a ton of sapce for the OS so whatever this short stoke is about I don't mind if I lose half the drive space to increase speed.
Any help is MUCHO!! Appreciated.
