Allover, the 10,000 RPM harddrive will not give you that much performance over the 7,200 RPM harddrives. They do have 15,000 RPM harddrives, but I do not know much about them.
The thing that WILL give you more performance is a higher level of HDD cache. 8 MB will do, but 16 MB gives you quite a large boost when accessing large files.

Those drives are SCSI drives they are used in server environments in high powered servers.

Need a sig
SCSI cards cost loads though and then even more for the drives.
Just get 2 7200RPM drives with good cache and Raid them up in raid 0, they offer better performance than 10k raptor i have it in a mag somewhere. You could always raid 0, 2 raptors for crazy speeds :o
