New Build considering storage and OS drive.....mostly for 3D Cad/Cam and photoshop work non gamer
Motherboard Asus P8P67 WS Revolution Rev. 3
CPU Intel I7-2600K
Ram 16 GB Kingston Hyper X
HDD 2 WD Caviar Black 500GB Sata 3 for storage/backup
Kingston Hyper X 240 GB SSD Sata 3
I was going with the Kingston SSD for OS/PRograms then got to thinking after all the reviews I've read of SSD that one would lose the read/write advantage if using HDD as storage for files as you'd be back to the latency and read/write specs of traditional harddrive which is really counter productive in Cad/Cam work or Photoshop if editing files and saving and so on....so considering this........which is more an experiment than truly cost effiecent.
Kingston Hyper X 120GB SSD Sata 3 for boot OS/Programs and the Kingston Hyper X 240GB SSD Sata3 for working storage of files with the HDD raid set as final storage and backup ....... of course an external back up as well.
Curious to thoughts
