    rapture RAID isnt pointless people just expect too much from it.

    mas0n Yeah I wouldn't say it's pointless, that showed what everyone should know which is that RAID 0 will decrease overall game and level load times, but not increase FPS. Good enough a reason for me.

    primesuspect In context is what I meant. Gaming RAID = pointless

    I would never dare run a file or DB server without raid. I just spent $3000 of company money on a huge RAID 10.

    Snarkasm I still don't really see how you can call it plain pointless when the article points out that it does, in fact, have quantifiable benefits. No, if your qualification for gaming is all based on FPS, it won't help you nearly as much as a new graphics card, but graphics and RAID will improve your overall gaming experience more than just the new video card. Loading times suck, damnit!

Howdy, Stranger!
