i also only use raptors for system drives, and they are WELL WORTH IT
for that use.

i use www.tomshardware.com to review all manner of stuff and they do a
great job on drives.

i haven't done this yet, but i will get a raid box one day...

for as much time as i put into ripping and archiving and generallly
screwing around and wasting time with my music, raid is the surefire
backup system i need.  plus, it can backup my other data too.  its
almost impossible to lose raid data, as long as you monitor it.

personally, i like the infrant raid boxes.  (used at the radio
station)

and if you get one, using xraid it can dynamically increase volume size
as you swap larger discs in.

it also has the added benefit of allowing you to not really care too
much what HDs you use, and gives you the option to wait until larger
sizes than you have become more standard and drop in price.
