  15. Intel 2600k with SSD / 16 GB/1600 RAM - sharing my experience for reference

    I have been using two WD 10K Raptors in a Raid-0 and think that is a good alternative to an overpriced and undersized SSD. I used two 150gb ones and they cost about $100 each 18 months ago. That gives me a 300gb system drive. If I was going to build a new system today I'd do the same...
