Pros: Inexpensive way to get a fast, reliable hard drive to supplement or be primary storage.
Cons: You need to be or become SATA or SATA II compatible.
The Bottom Line: This is a keeper and a very rare 5 star from me. It answered the issues I had at a relatively nominal cost.

Pros: Quiet. Fast in RAID 0. Very inexpensive. Huge capacity.
Cons: Ordinary seek times per disk.
The Bottom Line: Puts the 'I' (inexpensive) in 'RAID' without sacrificing anything.
