Default Re: SATA Drives

Two SATA drives and two IDE ATA-100 drives (one is my native the other is in a tray and is used as a back-up drive), is what I have been using for a while.
However, I, too, am about to change over to one 74 Gb WD Raptor 10K RPM drive to use as my native drive and a 300 Gb Seagate SATA that uses NCQ as my record drive, just like Carl mentioned ... I hear it is the only way to go. I will be going to this set-up around this time next week.
I am also going to use a 200 Gb Maxtor ATA-133 in a mobile rack as my back-up drive (I also back-up onto DVD's ... sure hope the price of dual layer DVD comes down soon though), and the SATA audio/record drive is also in a mobile rack tray. The two SATA drives I mentioned earlier are in trays, too ... they were the original drives in my system.
