3.0 P4C is only between 1% - max 5% faster than 2.8 P4C. It mainly
consumes more power and produces more heat. Worth $38?
R9600XT chipset is almost 60% faster than standard R9600. If you're
looking to save some bucks, check out R9600pro.

Maxtors generally less reliable - at least historically. I've also hadUsing Raptors in RAID 1 is a waste of money
Use the Maxtor 6Y080M0.
Just about as fast (max of 59mB/s vs 63mB/s)
Much less expensive ($75 vs $105)
Larger ( 80 vs 38).

several Maxtors develop a really unpleasant whine after a while.
If you're interested in relative silence, go Seagate (although not quite
as fast - or WD for reliability.

You know I agree with you on that. Now I am leaning toward going with
one Raptor and using a 250 gig Hitachi drive as a backup. I know that
Hitachi took over for IBM and IBM hasn't had the best track record.
However, I have read so many reviews saying how great the current 250
gig drive is, that I am willing to take the risk.
