It makes 200 of your original 250 GBs read and write TWICE AS FAST. Then put extreamly important things on the 50. If you do hardware RAID instead of software RAID, you can RAID your OS. Making your OS alot faster. Does the board you want have dual memory controlers? EDIT: Btw, RAID the two 100GB together. That's a plan but why not put in a 10K Raptor for his OS and important stuff and the rest on teh 2 100hdd? That's what I plan to do with my new PC -Emo
