Man, I remember getting 2 74GB Raptors and set it to RAID 0. Snappiest setup you can get at that time.

They still make those? What's the point with SSD and NVMe now?

LOL I'd only take a spindle drive if it is free.
The noise, the horrible speed, and the wasted electricity....

I like how the SD pic shows up as a KN95 mask box which is far more valuable

This is one of those cases where I really wonder who, as a consumer, would still buy this. The only advantage mechanical drives have now is continuous writes. But then you wouldn't need a performance drive like a velociraptor. A simple 5400rpm green drive would be best and much bigger capacity for same price.

VelociRaptor laugh out loud

Those were the days.

Still kinda neat, if you were into retro PCs and the noise these produce.

So I was thinking about building a small unraid server, since you don't want to use ssd in the main array this might work for a parity drive since you write to it all the time. what do you think?
