With the advent of solid state drives I'm wondering if it pays to consider this drive anymore?

The cheapest 160GB SSD on NewEgg is $469. So, yeah, I'd say these drives should still be considered.

I love my VelociRaptor combined with a 80 GB SSD boot drive.

Well considering the 500 gig single platter drives match or just outperform this drive for a fraction of the cost this drive is not worth it anymore.

I got my brand new 300GB 10K drive on ebay at this price. Something to think about if you are considering to buy this drive.
