Why bother? It's not all it's hyped up to be. Just get more IDE.

Problem at the moment is that WinXP has a little performance problem with it.
But, I'm sure MS will be fixing that rightaway . . . .

Let's see what we can purchase in the UK.....
£103.28 - 7200rpm 250GB IDE. For this price we can either go for a 15000rpm 18.4GB U320 or a 10000rpm 36.7GB U320.WTF is the point in a drive that small? And there is no way it would be any faster, larger drives are much much faster, especially when you are using a small amount of them only. I don't care what interrface they use, the mechanics wouldn't go any quicker. It's liking buying a car capable of going 3 times faster than you'll ever drive it - the acceleration is plentiful.

The IDE raid card I bought has all the SCSI personalities built in.
How does an interface make the spindle last longer?
SCSI is a dying breed. SATA or firewire or something, that's what you want.

And honda make very good cars. Your point?
Bullshit. I can get over half a GB per second on my RAID card. I've yet to see drives that need this.

With my old card yes. But the bottleneck was with the PCI slot it was in, not the IDE part.
