Guys... Is it true that the WD Caviar Black faster than the WD Velociraptor? I was going to get 2 velociraptor drives... but if the caviar black is faster for a cheaper price then why not get this one instead, right?

Which is better to run in raid 0, 2 velociraptors or 2 caviar blacks?? thanks guys.

Have a look in this post "Short Stroke "Side by side Results"
The Velociraptors are the 300GB ones against two WD640 blacks

Oh, the Velociraptors are at the bottom of the OP

access times are better on the raptor. Personally, I would either get the blacks or the 600gb raptor
