Yeah, it's a bitch on a cost/capacity basis....
If I ever build a system on a 'goes maximumfast, nevermind the price'
basis though.... it's so getting one of those or whatever the then
equivalent is as the system drive.
hmm, wonder if Intel chipsets in the next few years will be able to
handle SAS disks... I know SAS controllers can handle SATA drives...
hmm
(If Intels chipsets gained the ability to handle them, you could drop
one straight into a "Mac Pro" and stash your OSX and Windows boot
partitions on it. hmm... )

Saw that too. (actually, 15k.5...)
The problem is that I've always preferred capacity over speed.
750GB 7200.10 vs. 73GB 15K.5 for the same price...yeah, I'll take
10x the storage any day.
The sad thing is that the real place where these drives will be
primarily used (servers) take almost no advantage of the insane STR
they offer.
