You could have 5 terabytes of storage accessible by a liquid-nitrogen-cooled 14CPU system, but still get the responsiveness of a 80386. Of course, XP is a bottleneck in, and of, itself. I removed the storage bottleneck. Four 250MB 7200rpm drives connected to a £250 3ware 66MHz/64bit PCI RAID card. The processors can't write data that fast! Besides I have 2GB of RAM, soon to be 3GB. Try SCSI 320. I don't have THAT many credit cards. How much for a terrabyte of SCSI disks? Probably about £4,000 -- ah |
