So this is what I am currently looking to get, let me know if you guys see any conflicts.
I went with the velociraptor because it is fast and large enough for many games. I am relying on SRT pick up the slack for daily speed increase on the system. On a side note does the momentus XT work with SRT? is there a conflict in the caching when they are mated? Thanks for any and all comments.
