[QUOTE="bryphotoguy, post: 628447, member: 26695"] Macsales and newegg.com are great. The Raptor drives can be nice but I saw some tests with those setup as RAID 0 for speed and they aren't much faster than a 7200RPM drive. If you really need speed, you might want to invest in the NAS 15,000RPM drives. You wouldn't be able to use regular HDs as well though. It will always be cheaper to upgrade on your own, no matter what you decide. [/QUOTE]
