lol yeah 15,000 rpm is going crazy speeds..lol ALso you should check out the prices of hard drives with 7200 rpm. they are dropping like a brick, i can get a 120gb hard drive from a good company like seagate or western digital for like $80

160gb-180gb you can buy for $90-$115

thats at 7200rpm and 8mb buffer
