If only... for a lot of the things I do, all I need is massive storage
capacity, not massive speed (I run crypto on the entire raid array,
which reduces its speed to about 15 MB/sec maximum, which is far more
than I need for my purposes). I find it a shame 5400 rpm drives are
being phased out. In my opinion, 7200 rpm drives will make more noise,
produce more heat and live shorter than their 5400 rpm counterparts.
Some diversity in the hard drive market towards maximum
storage/reliability and maximum speed would be a good thing in my opinion.
