My bad, i got my ***** all discombobulated in my head, cuz I was recently doing research on RAIDing two 10K Raptors, and everyone said its useless unless you are editing video. Just got my definitions mixed up ATM
BUT...... why spend money on 4 hard disks... hes building a budget computer. 1 hard drive will suffice.

On the other hand, so are CD's, and not downloading porn, along with falling into virus-infected links.
Jim, unless you download alot of music, porn, or are an extreme gamer, 250gb is a bit much. Try a 160, save money, and if u need more space, buy another one down the road. I have a whopping total of 560GB of hard drive space. Its a bit much. I have ALOT of music, and alot of games... and I am only using roughly 40gigs.
