Machine / Hard Drive Question

[Gian]

We are using VERTEX 3.5 - So far so good.....

I just got a new 12-core for post and 3d work. I installed four 2TB drives with Apple Pro RAID card and used the Other World Computing Optical Bay Chassis to install two of the 200GB Mercury EXTREME Pro RE SSDs into it.

Currently I am trying them as singles but will eventually configure to RAID 0 as my primary scratch disk. If they perform well in my render box then I'll most likely start putting them into CAT machines.

I invite any feedback anyone else may have on alternative drives even though I like the OCZs. Of course I still have about a dozen of the Mtron drives which have been rock solid.
