Someone give me some real world insight.
I've never been able to understand why, exactly, a home user (even an OC'er) needs to go with a RAID set up. Don't see the point other than braggin' rights.
Yes, I've seen the stats, SATA drives vs. IDE drives. A few seconds loading a game aren't worth it.
So, why RAID? What does it actually do that is so great? Two IDE drives works friggin great! One with the OS and core progs and the second for mass storage and games.
I need some actual input on this, please.
