Hi guys, im looking for parts to build my self a pc and i have finally narrowed it down to just choosing the right hard drives. Now my budget for the storage system is 500$, oh and btw i work on proffesional video editing and effects for feature films and just small free lance work. I use sony vegas, the adobe suite, avid, and 3d programs like maya and 3ds max.
so I have narrowed my search down to this
1 of these http://www.tigerdirect.com/applications/SearchTools/item-details.asp?EdpNo=5239129&CatId=4357
or
or 2 of these in raid 0 http://www.tigerdirect.com/applications/SearchTools/item-details.asp?EdpNo=5201710&CatId=4357
or
2 of these http://www.tigerdirect.com/applications/SearchTools/item-details.asp?EdpNo=4545311&CatId=4357
these are strictly for my video files, i have other drives for my os and apps.
so my question is, how much speed increase do you get with raid 0, because the first drive is twice as fast as one of the other 2. so should i get the 2 with raid 0? and if i do, do i need any extra hardware to run a raid system? or do you have your own recommendations?
thanks in advance
