Why no SCA? <<7200 rpm will be the slowest you'll find. 10K rpm is available in reasonable sizes, 15K rpm is becoming available.>> So there is a noticeable difference with faster rotational speeds? <<Unless you're willing to spend an outrageous price per gigabyte, 18 and 36 GB drives will be your main choice, with 72 GB and larger drives also being available at a big premium.>> Even 9GB is fine for me. <<I bought a dozen 18.3 GB, 7200 rpm, 68-pin, 2 MB cache drives for under $30 apiece.>> Any recommended places to look for these sort of deals?
