I'll trade two IBM hard disks for one.
At the moment I've got One Maxtor and 2 80gig WD 8 megs and so far they're working like a charm.
If you want crap hard drives try fujitsu who are busy recalling there crappy hard drives. They fail faster than IBM's. Good job they quit making them or they'd be offering a two month warrenty.

Why would it cost that much when you can raid two 120MB's for a lot less?System Specs:

That's the way hard drives work Budd. Just like processors, there's exponential premiums on the highest tech.
The people that are looking at these 200GB drives need data density, so a 2x120 RAID isn't comparable.Gigabyte P35-DS3L with a Q6600, 2GB Kingston HyperX (after *3* bad pairs of Crucial Ballistix 1066), Galaxy 8800GT 512MB, SB X-Fi, some drives, and a Dell 2005fpw. Running WinXP.

Well, I understand that Wombat, but 500 dollars? But thanks Zokes for clearing that up. I think $300 is on par. This is good though because it will lower the price on the other models.System Specs:
