Wow. I can’t believe they’re here already. I was expecting these to take quite a bit longer!

Unlike all of the other test floating around on the web, I actually paid for these. That’s right, more than $2500 in hard drives for 320GB of storage. That’s a cost of $7.6/GB! Evidently I’ve completely lost my mind, but I’m confident that the performance and overall speediness of my machine will justify the upgrade. Let’s hope I’m right *gulp*. RAID 0 performance on ICH10R and a 3Ware 9690SA-4I PCIe 8x hardware RAID card to follow!

I’m very excited!
