Dear Johnathon,

A cheaper swap file alternative which will make serious speed
improvements is as follows.

Get 2 western digital 36.7Gb Western Digital Raptor Enterprise Serial
ATA (ATA-150) (10Krpm, 8MB Cache)

Drives and a sata raid card from maplins

The card is about �40 and the drives are �83 each from maplins. You can
then stripe them and get rougly double the speed of one sata drive ns
probable 3-4 times the data transfer rate you have at the moment. 

So for about �200 you sorted .This I know is not the same speed as the
scsi equivalents but a lot faster than what you have at the moment.

Cheers

Ian Reynolds
