a 60GB SATA @5400RPM's or a 60GB UATA100 @7200RPM's?

This is for a laptop, I am considering a RAID 1 array to make sure everything is secured on a future lappy. Possible... future lappy :p

Or do you think it is ok to go with a RAID 0 array, get the speed and all, just backup everything I need on an External device?

    the 7.2k drive, hands down. You looking at that new Sager? I'd go for 2 5.4k or 7.2k drives in RAID 0 and back it up.
